Things to Do on the OBX for Sunday February 23, 2025

Good morning, Outer Banks! Expect clear skies and a light breeze today, with chilly temperatures starting at 35°F and warming up to a high of 40°F.

If you're an early riser, the sun greeted us at 6:58 AM and will set at 5:34 PM. The ocean is a brisk 46.2°F—definitely too cold for a dip without a wetsuit, but perfect for a peaceful walk along the shore. Bundle up and enjoy the beauty of the OBX!
