We tried going to the SF by boat one year and after going through the locks and waiting at all the bridges we found out the festival was no where near the water. I think we stopped at a Captain Georges that had a beach area and hung out there for a few hours.

LOL. It's fun, good food (funnel cake, BBQ, turkey legs), my wife and I go every year, it's only about 5 minutes from where we live.

I've been twice once working sound for the bands playing and once actually playing with a band. We talk about going each year but seem to find out it going on after the fact.

Is your pizza place nearby? My aunt and uncle live down old pungo ferry road. They usually order from the pungo pizza place when we visit.

We go to Bills Seafood which is down the road from the Wright Brothers monument. Not sure what is down in Corrolla but it has really built up over the years so there is plenty of choices. When I was younger Corrolla was not built up at all and we would spend the night on the beach after a long day of surfing. Can't do that anymore. If your going to be up in nags head I can give you directions to Bills.

Yes its Billy's Seafood off Colington Road (252) 441-5978. I'm sure they have live crabs but your probably going to pay $100 for a bushell if not more. On the way into Nags Head you may come across a few people selling crabs on the side of the road. As far as surfing its been so long sense I have been out serching for waves I have no clue where to tell you to go. If I remember correctly there is a science lab/pier down in corolla and thats where we surf back in the 80's. Now days if the waves are not breaking at the cottage we don't go serching. You can always take a trip down to Hatteras looking for waves.

atleast you stick to your guns

yeah i figured around 100 or so but if i have ten people throwing in it won't be that bad

hopefully the effects of el nino (which is spanish for the nino) might give us some decent waves, i'm gonna rent a surf board and give it a shot again, even if i don't find any waves i have no other way of playing beer pong in the pool

Corolla, North Carolina Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Should be some longboard waves over the weekend, but ankle slappers until well past Thursday.

There is a place here in Frederick that is doing $100 bushels, so you figure maybe $120 down on the shore. But as you said, between 10 people, you can't go wrong with a bushel of crabs and some cold beer.

Not sure about corolla but on Sat. & Sunday the waves around the 8 mile post were around chest high and very clean. The water was cold as hell but I could stay out for about an hour. My 3 yr. old last year was scared of the ocean but this weekend we had to drag her out of the water.

I was in Corolla for a week last June and for the first few days the waves were pretty massive because there was a storm off the coast. I don't surf so I don't know if they were ride-able or whatever but they made swimming less than fun. but by the end of the week they were decent.

I'm headed back down to the Outer Banks in about 3 weeks and I can't wait!!! Just like last year I'm going down with about 15 friends to stay at one of the big rentals. We'll be in Nags Head (I think) and the house looks awesome. I doubt we'll hit up too many bars or anything which is fine by me since the house has a kegerator and we'll have plenty of booze. Plus, I'll have a week out of the office, so I got that going for me, which is nice.
