Restaurants, light houses, etc..I like Bassnights Lone Cedar Cafe on the causeway to Manteo and Pirate's Cove. Burned down last year and is rebuilt now. Can't wait to go.
The Country Gin, the Farmers Daughter...
The Weeping Radish, The Aquarium and the Country shoppe by the weeping radish thats in Manteo - and of course the lighthouses & beach!
Is that too many??

Anyone been to the Elizabethan Gardens in Manteo? They are wonderful. I've seen Sam and Omie's on the corner before. Looks small. Maybe I'll try it this year. Oh yea, gotta love Sonic! Hurricane Moe's in Pirate's Cove is also great!
We usually stay around the Kill Devil Hills area. And we usually get a waterfront cottage so we spend most of the time on the beach. Hit the (gasp) Food Lion to fill the cabinets, the ABC for other necessities, and then just chill at the cottage (which usually has a pool, hot tub and pool table so we have lots to do).
For restaurants I miss The Wharf! Captain George's is THE BEST! Lucky 12 or Cosmo's for pizza. Would NOT recommend Port O Call for dinner - usually have good bands though. We usually do at least meal from Awful Arther's (takeout, though). Austin's Seafood is a great market (we like better than Seamark). Actually the Nags Head Pier has good food too!
We've never really done the lighthouse thing - but we do enjoy a day on the 4 wheel drive beach.
We've gone every year for the past 10 years and will be going again in September (off season - rates are cheaper, weather still hot, kids in school, store & outlets have great sales!).
