The Outer Banks is a beautiful place. Whether you visit the Outer Banks for the water sports, fishing, bird watching, history, or just love getting away to relax once in a while, everyone agrees that unique geography and unparalleled beaches make this a great vacation destination. At Seaside Vacations, we appreciate our guests and like knowing they are having a great time so in January this year, we held an “#OBXmoment” contest in which we asked our guests to share an Outer Banks photo that best captured their favorite Outer Banks Moment. We received hundreds of entries and learned what moments our guests found most memorable. The top three categories we received? Families, Dogs, and the beach itself...which we agree is part of what makes this place so special! Each submission captured the Outer Banks in all it’s beautiful glory and we wanted to share our favorites:
