What is the weather like in April?
-
Many locals will tell you that April is a great time to visit. The Outer Banks weather is mild and generally quite pleasant in April. The beaches are peaceful as the crowds have not yet been drawn in by the start of summer break. Expect average temperatures in the mid 60s for a high and mid 50s for the low at night-perfect for a beach bonfire.​
-
​
-
What should I pack?
-
Pack comfortable, casual, layered clothing for mild days and slightly chilly nights. Consider if you will be participating in yoga, walking or beach workouts and bring suitable clothing for movement. A bathing suit, just in case it is warm, or you want to take a dip in the hot tub. Bring any beach/sun protection you might need (ex. sunscreen, hat, etc). If you plan to kayak, bring shoes to wear in the water, a waterproof bag or case for your phone. Anything else that will make your stay more comfortable or enriching such as your journal, reading material, a notetaking book, etc. ​
