Visit our uncrowded, uninterrupted beaches and stay in an Outer Banks vacation rental home, just perfect for friends, families, and extended families. With discounted rental rates during the shoulder season, spending a Thanksgiving at the OBX will spark a family tradition that is priceless. Many rentals have kitchens large enough to prepare food for the entire family; multiple stoves for the turkey and stuffing, a two door fridge to keep the sweet tea and potato salad, and even a countertop for all the master chefs to create their signature sides. With most homes having multiples floors, children and even the distant cousins have plenty of elbow room. Check out all our different types of accommodations available.

Don’t unpack those winter sweaters just yet. The average temperatures on the Outer Banks linger in the high 50s throughout late November. What does this mean for you? Fishing is still great with catches ranging from drum to blues, whether inshore or offshore casting. The piers remain open for fishing also, with updated fall hours. Furthermore, the expert eaters know that in order to make it through an entire day of eating, you have to get outside and walk it off. What better backdrop for a stroll than the Atlantic Ocean and shimmering shorelines? Find a full list of fall events happening here.

Even though most rental homes have well-equipped kitchens, many restaurants offer Thanksgiving meal packages. As the pace slows down along the islands, some restaurants change their hours and offerings. You can still expect local seafood, homely charm, and delicious hand-made meals. A sprinkle of sea salt, splash of Kill Devil Rum and an extra heaping of oyster stuffing are the missing pieces to your Thanksgiving meal.
