The Area - Corolla

Currituck County's northern beaches around Corolla have been described by USA Weekend as ''one of the 10 best undiscovered beaches on the East Coast.'' The northernmost accessible town on the Outer Banks, Corolla has seen rapid development over the past fifteen years. Up until 1984, when the state extended Highway 12 north from the Dare County line, the town was a sleepy seaside village. Today, multimillion dollar vacation homes dwarf the village proper and make Corolla one of the most desirable upscale vacation destinations in the country. Ironically, it was the opening of the road that eventually led to the relocation of one of Corolla's most famous attractions, the wild ponies.

At the center of the village is the Whalehead Club and Currituck Lighthouse complex. Millionaire industrialists built the Whalehead Club in the 1920's as a hunt club for the wealthy. Today, the Club is being restored to its original glory and serves as a waterfowl museum. They have daily tours open to the general public.

Next door, the red brick Currituck lighthouse towers over the landscape. The northernmost of the Carolina lighthouses, the 180-foot structure is open for climbing in the summer months and features a small museum and the restored light keeper's house. You will find the climb is worth every step once you make it to the top and see the amazing views of the sound and the Atlantic.
