Ok I want to hit some sand. Somewhere around mid-atlantic Sometime in July, I'm thinking OBX drive / camp on the beach. fish out of the 'yak and generally have a good time.

Anyone in? I'll bring a blender.

Dude! I'm in!! But . . . my idea of roughing it is Motel 6.

I will subscribe to this thread to keep updated . . . I have been waiting for you guys to get your stuff together and get out there on the sand.

Sounds like a good photo op, too.

my requirements are : Sun, Sand, campable, drivable beach.

The beach is the road that connects the parking-lot to the fish.

It matters not which beach.

I am down for wherever whithin 6 driving hours. How far is this island from Raleigh, NC? I know it takes me 4 hours to get to chesapeake

google maps.

Drive time - unknown, might be just at the edge of your feasibility range K_os.

I'm liking the idea.

I don't know the most North-ward beach that is driveable /campable in NC. - but I think it's Nags head.
which is 5 hours from me (No-Va (DC beltway)) but further for those north of me (MD). Assateague appears to be the most friendly of the accessable areas. (Camping is not anywhere on the beach though).

I'll keep this thread open for suggestions on times / locations up to June 16th, then I'll make plans for my trip.
