Outer Banks Weather & Seasons

Renowned as a summer-time oasis, the Outer Banks is a beautiful and mild year-round destination, with something for everyone to experience indoors or out. The most popular time of year to visit the Outer Banks is generally Memorial Day through Labor Day, but fall, winter, and early spring provide temperate weather and fewer crowds. The “off-season” is a great time of year to find discounted nightly rates, so don’t discount it.
