ROANOKE ISLAND ATTRACTIONS

No visit to Roanoke Island is complete without visiting our world-class attractions.

The Roanoke Island Festival Park combines history, shopping, art, and music into the memory of a lifetime. All ages become kids when they pet the stingrays at the North Carolina Aquarium. The Elizabethan Gardens will take your breath away with its stunning beauty. Fort Raleigh National Historic Site will teach you about our early history that will leave you in awe. And don't even think of leaving without a night under the stars at The Lost Colony.

But beyond these main attractions lie the hidden secrets of Roanoke Island. Check out a replica of a screw pile lighthouse at the Roanoke Marshes Light on the Manteo Waterfront. Learn how early local mariners built boats to safely navigate the shallow sounds at the Creef Boathouse. Or take a flight of fancy at the World War II aviation museum at the Dare County Airport.
