Cape Hatteras is SO loved that it has been mentioned in numerous publications this year in which critics and travelers boasted about their love for the idyllic vacation spot.

Family Vacation Critic, part of the TripAdvisor family named Cape Hatteras National Seashore the top family friendly beach for 2016. They chose it because it offers "an authentic vacation away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, with the seashore of the main attraction"

Cape Hatteras was named one of the 10 best East Coast beaches by the readers of USA Today, boasting "ocean waves, coastal flora and fauna and a picturesque lighthouse," along with magical experiences like "kiteboarding, crabbing and beach fires" keeps families coming back year after year.

U.S. News and World Report named the Outer Banks the #4 top family beach in the U.S.A. this year, because "OBX's largely undeveloped landscape means you'll have plenty of unobstructed photo ops. Peaceful waves, usually calm enough for swimmers of all levels, will put an extra dose of relaxation in your vacation."

So if you want to kick your shoes off, relax and enjoy the sun and sand I recommend you check out Cape Hatteras and all it has to offer.
