This Week on the Outer Banks | October 2 - October 9, 2020

October 2nd - October 9th, 2020

Governor Roy Cooper announced on Wednesday that we will be moving into Phase 3 beginning Friday, October 2nd at 5 p.m. Read our blog for details about Phase 3 and how it affects weddings on the Outer Banks. 

Beach driving is back in Kill Devil Hills and Nags Head until April 30th, 2021. Beach permits are available for purchase at Kill Devil Hills Town Hall by appointment only. Call (252)-449-5338 to arrange an appointment. Nags Head permits are available at Nags Head Town Hall or at all tackle shops in Nags Head. Permits issued in Nags Head are accepted on KDH beaches and vise versa. Seasonal permits are $25 and temporary permits are $10, which are accepted for 14 days. Drivers license, proof of insurance and registration are required to purchase. 

The Outer Banks tourist season is still in full-swing, with record breaking numbers of visitors coming to the Outer Banks through October! If you are planning a Fall trip, read our blog on things you can do during the Fall on the Outer Banks.

Due to increased late Summer travel to the Outer Banks, Cape Hatteras National Seashore has extended lifeguarding services through the end of September. Lifeguards will be stationed at Coquina, Frisco and Ocracoke beach access from 9am-5pm. 

Visitors and residents are encouraged to follow the “Three W’s” as outlined by the N.C. Department of Health & Human Services. (WEAR a face covering, WAIT in line at least six feet away from others, and WASH or sanitize hands frequently. 

The Outer Banks Wedding Association has been hosting We Do! Sessions with our vendors here on the Outer Banks. Different creative vendors teach us how to do something and we ask them follower submitted questions. Check them out on our Instagram TV Channel @obxwa
