What's so romantic about the Outer Banks? Plenty! Imagine a wintertime walk along the beach, locked in the arms of the one you love. The air is chilly and you have to hold each other closely to stay warm. Maybe you brought a blanket so the two of you can snuggle as you relax on beautiful unspoiled beaches, as the rhythm of the surf sets an ideal mood. It is easy to see... winter is a perfect time for a romantic escape.

Currituck's Outer Banks is more than just a summertime hot spot. Cooler temperatures of the fall and winter have a special appeal, too. Put on a sweater and enjoy the same things Currituck has to offer in the summer months.

After a night in a cozy oceanfront abode, you and your special one can go on an antique hunt or dine in one of several sumptuous restaurants. Afterwards, visit a local winery to taste regional wines and learn about winemaking while you enjoy a romantic outing together.

For a unique romantic adventure, enjoy a ferry ride across the Currituck Sound to Knotts Island. Conjuring images of old romantic movies in which couples stand at the bow and steal a kiss in the fog, the Currituck Ferry provides a one-of-a-kind excursion. Visitors ride for free, so park your car and look that perfect spot to cuddle from the one you love--maybe on the bow of the ferry or in a climate-controlled lounge.

A romantic stay on the Currituck Outer Banks is sure to bring couples closer together. Enjoy fresh cool air, nippy ocean breezes, pristine beaches, elegant dining and plenty of shopping as you spend quality time together.
