Families also enjoy visiting the local lighthouses, especially Currituck Beach Lighthouse, where kids can climb to the top for sweeping views. For hands-on fun, check out the North Carolina Aquarium on Roanoke Island, which blends education with entertainment. If your kids love to run off some energy, the Jockey’s Ridge State Park sand dunes are perfect for kite flying, sandboarding, or simply climbing to see the sunset.
