Southern Sunshine - Emerald Isle
Food scene
We love Gaffers for dinner out. Great drinks and atmosphere. They often have live music outside on the patio, so go early to beat the crowd!

Our favorite spot for lunch or dinner on the island. A quick bike ride away! Even if it's busy, you can have drinks while you wait. The staff and food is always amazing. Get the cheese curds!

Fun outings
A favorite with the kids! Just a short walk from our house. You can get a wristband that's good all day (for return visits) or go after 5:00 for a discounted rate. The mat slides are our favorite.

Our daughter did a surf lesson with Owen from Hot Wax, the surf shop just around the corner from the house, and he was wonderful! You can rent surf boards, paddleboards and kayaks through Hot Wax as well.

Sightseeing
If you're staying for a week, we highly recommend a a day trip out to Cape Lookout. You'll drive from EI up to Harker's Island and take a ferry over to Cape Lookout. One of our all time favorite outings was renting the ATVs for the afternoon - what a great time!! Stop in Beaufort for dinner on your way back.

Take a morning walk up to Bogue Inlet Pier or ride bikes up for dinner or lunch at Surfs Up. A great, casual spot that never disappoints. Our favorites are the grouper basket and blackened shrimp!

We love love love Beaufort! If you're staying a while and looking for a day/half-day trip, drive up to Beaufort to walk around town, take a ferry ride, or grab a bite to eat. We recommend stopping in the General Store for ice cream. Our favorite is the sunset ferry ride to Shackleford Banks to see the wild horses.
