Review & FAQ:
Nags Head has mostly consisted of a handful of small hotels and family cottages since its beginnings during the 1800’s. Visitors today can still see a number of historic cottages, the majority of which can be found in the Jockey’s Ridge State Park, the most significant landmark in town. The park is the tallest system of sand dunes in the eastern region of the country, providing unmatched views of the area. The oceanfront of Nags Head includes plenty of parking and public beach access. A small town vibe and family-operated businesses prevail today, creating a certain relaxed, slow pace and charm.
