North Carolina Coastal Plain Region Attractions and Culture

The Coastal Plain Region of North Carolina has many interesting attractions to offer. It is the most rural of the three regions with the fewest large cities and towns. This area includes the Outer Banks that has the two largest sounds, Pamlico and Albermarle, in the United States. Roanoke Island, Kitty Hawk, and many lighthouses are just a few of the places to visit in the Outer Banks. The Coastal Plain also is home to many state parks and national wildlife refuges. Commercial and sport fishing are popular activities here. Many visitors take advantage of the multiple beaches and festivals that are also available.
