The Breakwater Inn is located on the very edge of Hatteras Village, and is as favorite destination for anglers, water lovers, and any Outer Banks vacationer who appreciates life on the “edge of the world.” Close to a host of local marinas, a small handful of shops and restaurants, and the Hatteras / Ocracoke ferry, these waterfront accommodations are a great fit for travelers by land or sea who truly want to get away from it all.

The Inn features 21 rooms that boast two queen beds, a microwave, and a mini-fridge, as well as two expansive suites that include a living area, full kitchen, a king bed, and a Jacuzzi. The biggest selling point of Breakwater Inn, however, is the view, and every guest in the soundfront building will enjoy a spectacular nightly sunset over the water. (There are also rooms available just off the water in the “Fisherman’s Quarter - a separate building.) In addition to the vistas, guests will enjoy access to the inn’s seasonally operational community pool, as well as the on-site restaurant, also called the Breakwater. With ample space, picturesque sunsets, and a breathtaking locale in the heart of Hatteras Village, the Breakwater Inn earns its longstanding reputation as a favorite place to stay on Hatteras Island.

Sandy Run Park

Sandy Run Park leads its visitors through the heart of Kitty Hawk Woods Coastal Preserve, one of the largest maritime forests remaining in North Carolina. Completed in two phases, the park now encompasses 1600 acres of marshland, waterways and maritime forest. The park features a wooden boardwalk, two gazebos, a fishing and many more amenities for the enjoyment of the area's natural beauty and wildlife. On a stroll through the park you will likely run into many of the area's indigenous creatures and plants.Just after entering the park, and next to the ample parking area you’ll find a covered picnic pavilion, a putting green, cookout grills and a basketball half court. Below the pavilion is a canoe and kayak access deck. Beyond this recreation and picnic area is a half-mile loop, mostly boardwalk, that will take you on a scenic and educational tour of a large section of the Preserve, where wildlife and plants are identified by plaques placed along the route. At the first gazebo stop is another kayak and canoe access where you’re sure to see many yellow-bellied slider turtles swimming all around and an Osprey family nesting above. Other creatures you may get a glimpse of include deer, otter, egrets, raccoons and even a nutria. Also along the boardwalk you’ll find an observation deck and a pier for fishing (license required). The fishing pond is stocked with several varieties of fish, including brim and bass..Sandy Run Park is open from sunrise to sunset. Although the cost is free, the natural serenity and beauty it offers is priceless.
