North Carolina Holidays - Plenty of Attractions
From the misty mountains to the sunny coast, North Carolina holidays offer natural beauty, history, arts, culture and adventure – something for everyone. In the mountains you can surround yourself with scenery and spend your time picnicking, hiking, or even white water rafting, for which some sort of
hat might be in order. In the winter this is skiing country, or snowboards if you’re cool. There are 600 internationally well-regarded golf courses.
Holidays to North Carolina - Lots of American HistoryThe North Carolina holiday coast is known to be a place rich in history and thick with stories of pirates, battles, and sunken ships. Visit historic Beaufort and walk the streets where Blackbeard himself once strolled, view artefacts from his pirate ship the Queen Anne's Revenge, or have lunch at one of the great restaurants on the downtown waterfront.
Most importantly of all of course, North Carolina is the location of the first successful sustained powered flight, by the Wright brothers of course, in 1903. There’s a 60 ft granite monument perched atop Kill Devil Hill, for this is where it all happened. A visit should include touring the museum exhibits, touring the reconstructed camp buildings and first flight trail area, and a climb up Kill Devil Hill to view the memorial pylon. It’s only 90ft high, go on, you can do it. North Carolina holidays offer the opportunity to emerse yourself in the landscape and culture of the
Deep South.
