Enjoy a cold drink and an easy-going atmosphere on the edge of the water at this destination that has been a favorite local hangout for more than 30 years. Situated along Colington Road in a mainly residential corner of the central Outer Banks, Blue Crab Tavern is where waterfront views and good times meet, and is a great spot to unwind, relax, and simply enjoy the good life by the saltwater.

The Blue Crab Tavern is truly a throwback to the Outer Banks of old, as the converted fish house with a waterfront deck and a casual setting has a fun and relaxed “come as you are” scene. The cash bar has a number of cold libations at the ready, and the tavern features a free foosball table, a pool table, and a jukebox that is always popular with the crowd. Enjoy a sunset at the outdoor gazebo with decking and docks, or just unwind with new and old friends in the cozy and ultra-casual interior. With seasonal special events like live music or pool tournaments, Blue Crab Tavern is a hang-out spot that new and seasoned Outer Banks fans alike can dive into for some post-beach fun.

Sailing the Outer Banks

Vacationers will notice a handful of sailboats at every local Outer Banks port, either saddled up to the docks or breezing across the harbor, en route to the nearest sound for a cruise, or to the continent-spanning Intracoastal Waterway to continue a long coastal voyage. Some vacationers are even in it for the long haul, docking for a summer or a winter season at a number of local marinas that offer all the comforts of home. Clearly, sailing lovers of all varieties have plenty of options, but even newcomers to the sport can experiment with life on the water with a local sailing lesson, rental, or waterfront cruise.
