A Guide to Duck Activities and Attractions
The town of Duck is only about 20 minutes from our Outer Banks Resort, making it an easy day trip option. There are plenty of fun things to check out during your visit, so we recommend giving yourself almost a full day.
One of the most popular attractions in Duck is the town park and boardwalk. Found in the heart of town, the park sits on 11 acres and is home to endless natural beauty. There are several trails that take you through a maritime forest and willow swamp. The park is also where you can access the Duck Town Park Boardwalk. The boardwalk is open from dawn until 1 a.m. and takes you right along the Currituck Sound.
As you wander the boardwalk, pop in and out of the shops found along it. This collection of shops called the Waterfront Shops has a little bit of everything. Grab ice cream at Duck Toy and Ice Cream, or explore works of art at Sea Dragon Gallery.
If you’re looking to spend time out on the water, Duck Village Outfitters has a variety of equipment to rent, including kayaks and surfboards. Reserve your seat on a Vineyard Voyage, which departs from Duck and takes you to Sanctuary Vineyards. Once you arrive, you’ll be treated to a tour of the winery and a private tasting.
As you plan your visit to Duck, keep in mind that some businesses and attractions operate on shortened hours during the winter and early spring. Check individual websites for the most up-to-date information.
