Local Events

    Lots of youngsters are honing their biking skills on our narrow roads- including some still on training wheels.  And... golf carts are proliferating and at times erratic.  Please- drive with care and observe our 20 mph (or less) village speed limit.
 
   Bikes are required to have headlamps and rear reflectors after dusk.

    Just a few steps down the road from The Cove is Springer's Point, a 30 acre maritime forest under the stewardship of the North Carolina Coastal Land Trust- solitude, beauty and history all at once. There's even a mini-beach!

Lots of space for fishing, porpoise- and bird-watching, or just unwinding.

Tops the list of cleanest beaches by "Organic Style" magazine, who also singled out The Cove B&B as the  place to stay.

You might want to take a day-trip to Cape Hatteras and look at their young lighthouse, vintage 1870s.

OUR LIGHTHOUSE,  just a few hundred yards from The Cove, has been in continuous operation since 1823.
