It’s Off-Season!
One of the greatest advantages of visiting Cape Hatteras during Thanksgiving is the peaceful vibes of the off-season. Summer has sung its swan song, and the crowds have departed for the season, opening up a whole new world of peaceful, uncrowded shores. You can explore the Outer Banks at your own pace without the rush.
Rise each day of your stay to views of the ocean, beckoning you to come outside and take a walk (or swim). Your heart is sure to swell with gratitude this Thanksgiving as you witness a sunset over the Atlantic, painting the sky in shades of pastel pink and orange. The quiet and solitude of Cape Hatteras during this time of year provides the perfect setting for relaxation and reflection – and isn’t that what Thanksgiving is all about?
Thanksgiving Day Feasts and Flavors
Indulge in delicious food this Thanksgiving at the different restaurants offering Thanksgiving menus in Cape Hatteras. Enjoy a Thanksgiving dinner with the freshest catch of the day, while taking in the view of the Atlantic or Pamlico Sound. You might even be motivated to add a fish dish to your Thanksgiving menu in honor of your time spent in Cape Hatteras this year.
If you’d rather stick to the traditional meals you know and love, consider booking a vacation rental from Lighthouse View Oceanfront Lodging which features a full kitchen! Get to work preparing the recipes that have been handed down for generations in the kitchen of an exciting new space. You’ll have everything you need – like utensils and cookware – so you can prepare your own Thanksgiving meal in the comfort of your rental.
Outdoor Adventures for the Whole Family
Ground yourself in nature this Thanksgiving by exploring Cape Hatteras in the cooler November weather. The Cape Hatteras National Seashore is a must-visit, with miles of beaches, hiking trails, and opportunities to observe the wildlife. Stroll along the beach, go for a swim, kiteboard, or if you’re an angler, you can go surf fishing!
Climb the iconic Cape Hatteras Lighthouse to see the view from the top and take a photo in front of it to remember for many holidays to come. Check out the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge for a day full of birdwatching, nature walking and beautiful views. The refuge’s trails are family-friendly making it a great option for a Thanksgiving morning hike.
History and Adventure
Cape Hatteras is steeped in history, and Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to explore the area’s maritime heritage. The Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum offers fascinating insights into the nautical history of the Outer Banks, including its famous shipwrecks, legendary pirates, and the life-saving efforts of the Chicamacomico Life Saving Station which set the stage for the U.S. Coast Guard of today! Get lost in the treasure trove of artifacts and stories that will instill gratitude in all who visit.
For a truly unique experience, consider taking a guided horseback ride along the beach. Local stables like Hatteras Island Horseback or Equine Adventures offer tours that allow you to explore the seashore from atop a horse! Now that’s a real Thanksgiving adventure!
