On the East Coast, the best place for surf is on the Outer Banks, and this region is renowned as one of the best surfing destinations from New York to Florida. Surfers from all over the country and the world flock to the Outer Banks for the annual ESA tournament, or just after a storm swell, to paddle out to the Atlantic and enjoy some of the best waves on the coast. Luckily, you don't have to necessarily be an expert to paddle out. While there are some areas notoriously known for always having a series of exceptional, large waves, almost any beach can be a perfect practice ground for newcomers to the sport, and a number of local water sports companies offer lessons to visitors who have always wanted to hang ten.
Cape Hatteras / Outer Banks KOA is conveniently located close to the top surf spots and offers unique amenities like beach access, an outdoor cinema, water slides and more. Check out our blog Surfing on Cape Hatteras: A Guide to the Best Spots.
