Duck Town Boardwalk
Duck Boardwalk
A roughly 1.6-kilometer boardwalk along Currituck Sound, linking small shops, restaurants and sunset viewpoints.
Duck is the most refined little town on the northern Outer Banks. The roughly 1.6-kilometer boardwalk along Currituck Sound passes through wetlands, piers and the town's commercial district, with ice cream shops, seafood restaurants, boutiques and kayak rentals along the way. In the evening it is a great place to watch the sun set over the sound, and the Duck Jazz Festival is held every autumn. Entry is free. Parking in the town center is limited, so arrive early in peak season.
