Travel

Ocracoke is a hidden haven on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. We listed below travelling options that will make your travels easier!

Flight

Raleigh-Durham

RDU has a lot of flights, however, PGV and EWN will provide a shorter drive from the airport to the ferry for guests flying into North Carolina. ORF is another great option if flying into Virginia, then taking the Hatteras ferry.

Travel Note

Ferry Information

It does take a little bit of extra effort to get to Ocracoke, but that’s another reason to love it. It’s a unique experience that sets the tone for your entire trip. There are three car ferry options you can take: 1. The Swan Quarter Ferry to Ocracoke: You can reserve these tickets in advance, which cost $15. It’s quite a large ferry and there’s a good sitting space upstairs. It takes 2 hours and 45 minutes. Ferries run three times a day. 2. The Cedar Island Ferry to Ocracoke: This ferry is smaller than the Swan Quarter one. Again, be sure to book in advance and it costs $15. Ferries run three times a day. 3. The Hatteras Ferry to Ocracoke: This was the longest drive time from Raleigh, but the shortest ferry time, so if the timing works out, it could be the best option. However, it is first come-first serve and no reservations allowed. Ferries run every hour. The ferry is free and you can also bring a bike on. Reserve your ferry ticket in advance below!
