Winter is perfect time for Outer Banks oyster roast
The beaches are uncrowded, lodging is cheaper and, for one day, oysters are being roasted outdoors in the Outer Banks.
Take an off-season trip to North Carolina for the Hatteras Island Oyster Roast on Saturday, Feb. 1.
A fire will warm visitors feasting on fresh oysters, seafood chowder, corn bread and homemade desserts at Oden’s Dock, reports The Outer Banks Voice.
The event runs from 1 to 4 p.m. and features live local music. The proceeds will benefit the North Carolina Coastal Federation’s oyster education and restoration programs, according to the Voice.
The Outer Banks Visitors Bureau is a sponsor of event and tickets are $25 in advance and $30 at the door, the Voice reports.
Tickets includes as many steamed oysters as you can eat, one serving of chowder, corn bread and a nonalcoholic beverage, according to the Voice. The roast is a rain-or-shine, outdoor event so dress appropriately.
