Celebrating National Lighthouse Day on the Outer Banks 🐚✨
From historic charm to breathtaking views, the Outer Banks is home to some of the East Coast’s most iconic lighthouses — each with its own story to tell:
✨ Cape Hatteras Lighthouse
At 210 feet, it’s the tallest brick lighthouse in the U.S. and was famously relocated in 1999 to protect it from shoreline erosion.
✨ Bodie Island Lighthouse
Known for its striking black-and-white stripes and marshland setting — still lit nightly with its original lens from 1872.
✨ Currituck Beach Lighthouse
This unpainted red brick beauty stands tall in Corolla and offers panoramic views after a 220-step climb.
✨ Ocracoke Lighthouse
Built in 1823, it’s the oldest operating lighthouse in North Carolina and a charming part of Ocracoke’s quiet landscape.
