Outer Banks Grocery Stores

“Where’s the nearest grocery store?”

It’s a question we are asked a lot. After choosing which Outer Banks vacation home to book, figuring out what to eat is often the next step in planning a trip. A week-long vacation means you are going to need to plan a lot of meals and buy a large number of snacks! Luckily, the Outer Banks has many different types of grocery stores and local markets to choose from. Many OBX grocery stores offer grocery pickup and/or delivery. There are even fresh NC produce bags that you can preorder and pick up on your way into town!
