| Ocracoke "local color" |
 |
| S. MacNally's a local favorite |
Today we cruised 50 miles to Ocracoke Island, the Outer Banks.

| Still together - 2wks & counting |
The ICW crosses through Pamlico Sound, the second largest ICW estuary after the Chesapeake Bay and it deserves the utmost respect. It can be one of the roughest bodies of water on the entire ICW. Luckily, we crossed through it (20 miles off shore) to reach the Outer Banks in very calm conditions. Timing is everything.
Ocracoke Island strives to preserve its small-town atmosphere, and by choice, remains much as it was 50 years ago. "Local color" best describes the laid back establishments that line Irvin Garrish Hwy. Bicyclists, golf carts & motor vehicles all respectably share this roadway. We enjoyed a long walk on
yet another amazing beach. S. MacNally's, located harborside, is a popular watering hole and could possibly be our favorite so far - great bar, great local fish straight from the boat.
