Trying to plan an OBX trip and was wondering, since most of you just did the Spring Tide Ride, what campgrounds (either Nat'l Park Svc or private) would you recommend on Hatteras?
We're taking 3 boys ages 9 & 10 and plan to tent camp for 5 days. Mostly will spend time surf fishing, sound fishing, pier fishing, and crabbing. Being boys they will want to play in the surf too. Perhaps a run to Kitty Hawk for hang gliding. Would rather not have to break camp and re-set up so just one campground for 5 days is preferred. Since we're on Hatteras this time (vs. roughing it on Cape Lookout like last year), a few amenities like nice bathroom facilities, not next to a mosquito infested swamp, etc. would be nice.
We're taking my '79 FJ40 and a buddy's '61 Land Rover 109", so we can drive on the beach, etc. Any current beach ramp access recommendations would be great too.
So, which campground would you recommend and why?
Thanks,
Drew
