Review:
Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge, aptly named because of its small size, is a protected wildlife refuge located on a barrier island in the Outer Banks. The refuge exists to protect and provide a habitat for migratory birds.
Animals that can be seen in the park include the greater snow goose and many other waterfowl, wading birds, raptors as well as endangered species such as the loggerhead sea turtle. The refuge’s visitor center is located on Roanoke Island and features exhibits related to local wildlife, birds, and more. There are several trails in the refuge that can be used by visitors for birdwatching, hiking, wildlife photography, and fishing.
