Ocracoke Island

Ocracoke is only accessible by ferry. The vehicle ferry is free and takes around 60 minutes. There is also a passenger ferry option for $7.50 one way and takes around 70 minutes. Once on the island, there are a number of restaurants, shops, and 1718 Brewery - all within the walking village of Ocracoke.

ISOLA Pizzeria and Bar

Dinky's Waterfront Restaurant

We recommend planning dinner around sunset as the restaurant is located on the sound and has a great view of the water!

Breakwater Restaurant

Also a great sunset spot!
