It's not just a Christmas Shop... It's an experience!
For over 50 years, we have welcomed visitors from far and wide, helping them discover the enchantment of The Christmas Shop. The shop was originally opened in 1967, expanding and spreading the sparkle ever since!
Discover gifts, garlands and glittering lights galore. Looking for a trinket for someone who has everything? Choose ornaments for every hobby, occupation, occasion or enthusiast; from the fisherman or Disney lover; dancer or photographer.
Throughout our 25,000 square feet of wonder, where you can peruse and purchase from thousands of Christmas ornaments and décor, there is even more to experience! Wander through several intimate spaces peppered with gorgeous jewelry, home décor, handbags and hats, coastal items, and hostess gifts aplenty.
Only a few miles from the sea, the Christmas Shop is awash with coastal soaps, perfumes, decorative sea life, shells and breathtaking coastal home accents.
Our General Store is a food lovers paradise; with candy, fudge and chocolate for every sweet tooth, locally sourced coffees, salsas, sauces, chips and more!
Looking for a great way to entertain the kids? Head to our Toy Factory and find plenty of beach toys, games and gadgets. Feeling spooky? Our Halloween rooms are full of haunted delights that will scare all! Is it truly haunted? You tell us.
When you discover The Christmas Shop, you’ll find ornaments and gifts that will remind you of your trip to the Outer Banks for years to come. Many families have started their ornament collection right here, including baby’s first! We offer free personalization on all ornaments.
