Taking a bike ride is one of the best ways to witness the beautiful Outer Banks ocean front. Several bicycle paths and extra wide road shoulders allow you to take the whole family on a picturesque adventure.
Bike paths can be found in many towns along the Outer Banks for a slow paced, relaxing ride. Most of these paths are paved and wind along the highway, through wooded areas and along the ocean front. These paths allow you to travel from town to town without having to deal with all the traffic.
