Life is slower, but still lots to do.
With so much to do during the peak season, and even in the fall and spring, winter on the Outer Banks often gets overlooked. Alexandria Living sent a couple of reporters to these strips of sand to discover what life is like when the crowds have gone home.

Visit the Wright Brothers Memorial, where Wilbur and Orville Wright spent years experimenting with flight.”
