Part of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, Ocracoke Island is a pristine piece of paradise perfect for a relaxing beach vacation. The island can only be reached by boat or by aircraft, and visitors can spend their time kayaking, birdwatching, or simply strolling along the beach looking for seashells. The campsites are separated from the beach by barrier dunes, and campground amenities include drinking water, grills, and restrooms with flush toilets and unheated showers. The campground is open between mid-April and the end of November, and reservations can be made up to six months in advance.
