    If you like fresh air, walking and shopping, this is a great place to be. It's great if you go on a…read moresunny day when the view is beautiful.

    "Oh, under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah On a blanket…read morewith my baby is where I'll be" (The Drifters) It meanders along the Currituck Sound shoreline, covers 11 acres of trails, swamps, forest, a mile-long boardwalk, and takes you to dozens of retail stores, bars and restaurants. Welcome to Duck Town Park and Boardwalk in lovely Duck, NC. It's a real family and entertainment destination with an amphitheater, picnic shelter, and playground. Without question, the boardwalk and piers are the centerpiece of the property, measuring over 4,000 feet long and ten feet wide. You can take some beautiful photos of the boardwalk hovering over the water or silhouetted against the sky. The scenery along the boardwalk is gorgeous with pretty views of the Sound, sand dunes, fallen trees, and seagrass. We saw plenty of people taking advantage of the beautiful weather and simply strolling along the boardwalk or ducking into stores, bars, and restaurants, or relaxing on one of the twenty-one benches. I even saw a large bird (maybe a hawk or eagle or condor?) sweeping along the tree line and walking in the woods. anyone know what this is? https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/duck-town-park-and-boardwalk-kitty-hawk?select=JptpdCQdvEtdn_g0CL2tpw&userid=cVrM2BvOvPV0Vi_rC8kepQ We had such a nice relaxing time just wandering around the boardwalk and ducking into the occasional store or shop.

    I hadn't been back here since 2019 when we first took my dad. It's way out there in Pungo, but my…read morefriend and I had went kayaking at Sandbridge/Backbay and on the way back home, I asked her if she had ever been to Jerrasic Park. She never knew it existed, so we of course had to make an impromptu stop! Like others have mentioned it's free and even if the Aviation Museum is closed you can still visit Jerrasic Park because it's right outside the gates. It's called Jerrasic Park after the owner Jerry (Gerald) Yagen, an aviation pilot. He started aviation schools that are the world's largest trainer of FAA licensed aircraft technicians with schools coast to coast. Those campuses are under the names Centura College and Aviation Institute of Maintenance. He is also the owner/founder of the Aviation Museum, which are his own personal collection of WW I & II planes. The metal dinosaurs were created by the artist Gilbert Ramos. The creato of many popular custom outdoor metal sculptures and garden art in Southern California. He has been creating his unique sculptures since 1997. *It's a small free park with metal sculpture dinosaurs. It's cool to check out and take fun pics with the dinos. If you go online or visit the Aviation Museum, they used to do a scavenger hunt where if you find the items you can take your sheet to the front desk of the Aviation for a little prize. Not sure if they still do that. It worth checking out if you're over in Pungo but I would not make a trip out just for the park. It will easily take you 15 minutes to go through. There is a little area in the trees across the street to park.

    We had went to Culpher Farms, and on the way back we noticed the dinosaurs. So we stopped to see…read morewhat it was. There's a side you can park on across from the park. It's not really a parking lot, but a small area in the grass. It's in front of the Military Aviation Museum. It doesn't cost anything to enter the dinosaur park, which is great. We got out a there were several different dinosaur displays. We took advantage of this kid friendly freebie and took lots of pics. The grounds weren't really taken care of. So it was grass and weeds growing around some of the displays. Now that it's cold I'm fine, but if it were summer I'd be terrified of seeing a snake, because there are bushes everywhere. So hopefully during warmer seasons they maintain the area a little better. But I still enjoyed it. There's also a pond also, which was nice!! Just a quick fun little adventure!! Check them out!!
