Do

Hatteras sits at the southern tip of Hatteras Island with the Atlantic Ocean to its south and the Pamlico Sound to its north. It's a great place for those who want to fish, surf, wander along the beach, or just sit and relax to the sound of the waves. Public access to the beaches are available at several locations including:

  • 🌍 Graveyard Atlantic Museum and Ramp 55, Museum Drive. Beach access with a parking area. This area is unique as it provides access to the entire end of the island with access to both the ocean and the sound. (updated Jun 2022)
  • 🌍 Frisco Hatteras Access, NC Highway 12. Beach access with parking on the soundside of the highway. (updated Jun 2022)
