Located next to the famed Awful Arthur’s restaurant, and offering all of the sunny supplies required for enjoyable days on the shoreline, the Awful Arthur's Beach Shop is a great destination for Outer Banks vacationers, thanks to its assortment of souvenirs, beach supplies, and everything in between.
The Awful Arthur's Beach Shop is located along the Beach Road in the heart of Kill Devil Hills, and it’s just a shell’s throw away from the Avalon Fishing Pier and a number of public beach accesses, which makes it a convenient destination for folks to grab some last-minute beach supply items before hitting the sand. While folks will find a collection of toys, beach gear, and apparel, the shop is most famous for its signature “Awful Arthur’s” merchandise, so there are plenty of souvenirs that pay homage to this world-famous moniker. Pick up an Awful Arthur’s T-shirt or hat to take home as a memento, or grab an oyster knife, cooler, or tumbler to use at the adjacent fishing pier. With lots of well-stocked shelves of gifts to choose from, the Awful Arthur's Beach Shop provides plenty of unique souvenirs and other treasures for Outer Banks vacationers of all tastes and interests.
