What You Need to Know About Beach Nourishment in the Outer Banks

Beach nourishment moves sand from a source place to a beach as a strategy to slow its erosion. While beach nourishment does not completely prevent erosion, it allows the natural elements to “munch” on something else. It protects roadways and buildings near the coastline. Many coastal American destinations from the Northeast to the Southwest implement beach nourishment, including the Outer Banks.

Our guests have asked us about beach nourishment this year in the Outer Banks. We’ve compiled a list of answers to their most common questions below:

You Can Help Hurricane Victims & Have Lots of FUN at OBX Brewtag -Oct 27, 2018

Kegs will Fly, Memories will be Made, and Fun will be had by All!

While many people think that this is just another “Beer” festival…think again!

It is a truly a local event for the community, and this year the Rogallo Foundation will be donating 50% of the proceeds to Hurricane Relief efforts for Hurricane Florence and of course putting the other 50% of the proceeds toward the Rogallo Foundation.

 The Rogallo Foundation has made tremendous progress toward developing a museum for “low-speed flight” to potentially be built at Jockey’s Ridge State Park! What a great benefit to have another educational resource on the Outer Banks for the public!

What is OBX Brewtag?   

A celebration of flight and beer, OBX Brewtag is whimsical and entertaining.
Brewtag contestants will be competing to see who can launch and fly an empty 1/6 keg barrel the furthest.

If you haven’t been to the event, be sure to check out the YouTube video recap from last year.   Click here

*WE ONLY HAVE TWO HOUSES LEFT FOR THIS EVENT.
