Welcome to North Carolina!
Offering a diversity of landscape ranging from mountains to expansive white beaches, North Carolina is one of the nation's most charming vacation destinations. The Crystal Coast, Cape Fear Coast and Outer Banks regions prove to be popular areas for those seeking a relaxing coastal getaway. The Cape Hatteras National Seashore, a natural park that spreads for over 70 miles, offers recreational adventure in the Outer Banks. Communities such as Nags Head, Atlantic Beach and Wilmington are frequented beach destinations along North Carolina's sizable coast. The North Carolina Mountains offer a startling contrast to the coastal areas, as downhill skiing, hiking and biking are common activities in the renowned Blue Ridge Mountains. Asheville, situated amongst the peaks, is home to the Biltmore Estate, a luxurious home located on 8,000 acres. The capital city of Raleigh, as well as Durham, Charlotte and Chapel Hill, are major cultural and business centers, each offering an array of enriching attractions.
