7 Spectacular Spots In North Carolina Where You Can Camp Right On The Beach
To be honest, I’ve always preferred the beach more in the fall than summer. The temps are still warm, but the crowds have diminished. You still get a cool breeze every now and then, but you can fully experience the most of what the beach has to offer.
A peaceful ocean soundtrack to fall asleep to at night, gorgeous sunrises, warm days and of course the most beautiful sunset – that’s what a typical day camping on the beach is like. Fall is the perfect time to pitch a tent on the beach, and luckily in North Carolina just that is possible. These 7 campgrounds will offer you an unforgettable experience.
Located in the wild and rugged Outer Banks, Frisco Beach takes camping to the next level. It's primitive, remote, and you can't beat falling asleep to the sound of the ocean.
If you're looking for pure solitude, take a 15-minute ferry ride to Hammocks Beach State Park. You might even have a whole beach to yourself - with crystal clear waves included.
Located at Carolina Beach, take your four wheel drive right on the beach and pitch a tent for a one-of-kind experience. You'll more than likely be around other campers, but it's always a party on the beach, right? You can also build bonfires here.
Located on one of the more popular spots on the OBX, Cape Hatteras, this popular campground is perfect for tent camping - or park your RV not far from the beach.
Topsail Beach has been named one of the most beautiful beaches in the US, and you don't need a beach house to experience it. If you prefer more of a 'glamping' experience, Surf City campground has plenty of places to park your RV and walk straight to the beach.
This Nags Head campground is isolated, quiet and remote. While you might find other campers, there are plenty of secluded spots to pitch a tent - right on the beach or right in the dunes.
There’s really nothing like waking up to the sound of waves crashing on the shore – and also nothing like falling asleep to that sound. I’m ready to pitch a tent right beside the water – what about you? Have you visited any of these before or want to add any to the list?
Sure, camping is fun and all, but what about owning your own private island in North Carolina? These five could be yours!
