Our Local Take On Things To Do In Southern Shores

Try Some Local Cuisine

If seafood is your thing, Southern Shores will not disappoint! Multiple oyster bars and seafood dining options are at your fingertips in this quintessential Outer Banks town. Once you’re full, walk it off with a long stroll on one of the beautiful beaches.

Go To The Waterpark

If you’re traveling with children, hitting the H2OBX Waterpark is one of the best things to do close by to Southern Shores! Kids can enjoy rides and slides while you relax in the lazy river. Your children might come home tired, but not without a handful of great memories they’ll never forget.

Play A Round of Golf

Many Outer Banks golf courses are located on mainland Currituck, therefore Southern Shores, which is only separated from the mainland by the Wright Memorial Bridge, is an ideal place to stay if you or someone in your group is an avid golfer or wants to get some exercise.

Do Yoga

Vacations are meant to facilitate leisure and enjoyment. The soothing sounds of crashing waves, warm sunsets, and the peaceful privacy provided by the seclusion of Southern Shores, all work together to achieve a level of ultimate relaxation. If you’re looking for calmer things to do, consider enhancing your experience with a new yoga practice.

Fish For Tuna

The Outer Banks is infamous for tuna fishing! The town of Southern Shores is only about a 30-40 minute drive from Oregon Inlet Fishing Center where you can book an offshore fishing charter on your next vacation. Not one for the open sea? There are also some great fishing spots along the canals on the soundside or right from the beach in Southern Shores.
