Subject: Visiting
Corolla for the first time
My family and I have rented a home
in the Ocean Sands area of Corolla
in August. We have vacationed in the
past at Rehobeth Beach, DE and Ocean
City, MD. I know there is no boardwalk,
etc. But what can we expect? Are the
beaches crowded? Is the water rough....I
heard riptides are common? Are the
alot of restaurants? Chain or local?
Any info will be appreciated Read

Subject: Corolla
- too upscale?
My family (of four, two teenage daughters
+dog) have vacationed in Nags Head/Kitty
Hawk a couple of times about 10 years
ago. This year we are staying in Corolla
-- just to be different and possibly
not be as crowded. My husband is worried
about it being TOO upscale, snobby
and or "yuppyfied". Will
we be having to go up and down the
coast to go to resturants, shopping?
and if so, how long does it take to
travel from Corolla to Nags Head?

Subject: Hatteras
or Duck/Corolla?
Planning a vacation to OBX and am
trying to decide between Hatteras,
Avon area or Duck/Corolla, with oceanfront
rental in either location. From what
I understand Duck/Corolla is newer
and more residential and rentals seem
to be more costly. Hatteras area appears
to be less populated, and rentals
less costly. I'm trying to determine
the benefits or drawbacks to each
area. A couple of specific questions
I have are:
How long is drive to each area once
you get over bridge?
Are there enough 'large' grocery stores;
video rentals and restuarants in each
area?
Is the beach area different in either
area or access to beach from the homes
(in things read on Hatteras rental
descriptions don't mention 'private
boardwalk to beach')? Any and all
information would be appreciated.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Subject: I
loved it!
I just wanted to take a moment to
tell everyone thank you for all the
great advice. We just got back from
a week on the outter banks. We were
in Corolla, Pine Island. I beautiful
house right on the ocean we could
not ask for more. My husband went
on a charter and caught more tuna
and Dolphin then we know what to do
with jeje. He had an amazing time
with the guys. Us girls just hung
out and enjoyed the pool and ocean.
What more can you ask for. It is a
great place to connec with the family.
And the blue crabs are GREAT! For
those who are still counting your
days have a great trip. I only wish
I cold be there NOW. Read

Duck vs Nags Head area
Coming to the OBX for the first time
