''A small museum, run by locals that love the island and want you to love it too. Ocracoke is a quaint place to visit but it surpassed being just a beach trip when I learned about the people and events that made Ocracoke what it is today. Museum offered ''Back Porch'' talks that were sometimes informational and often fun. The week we were there they offered storytelling two days with storytellers attending Donald Davis' National Storytelling Workshop....''

''Great surf shop... they always have great deals on everything. And the people who work there are so friendly. I met the owner Randy surfing on the beach one morning....''

''by far best surf sop in obx good prices i bought a board here for 50 dollars best on the islan and next to a delicous resteraunt....''

''WOW! The staff here is the BEST! They know everything their is to do, the best times to approach different activities and all the best places to eat. What a nice and friendly staff also. Plus it's a gov't entity so no bias on the info. If you want to know where to shop and play in Corolla and Carova, stop off here first!...''
