Maritime Forest Sunset Kayak Tour (14)
Kitty Hawk Woods, one of only three maritime forests remaining on the Outer Banks, offers a unique experience as kayakers paddle through an amber-colored creek under a canopy of Live Oaks and Loblolly Pines. Reptiles such as turtles and snakes are very common in this area, as are birds such as herons, egrets, woodpeckers, kingfishers, red-tailed hawks and eagles. At sunset, paddle through the marsh section and possibly witness local wildlife feeding. A great kayak tour for the beginner as well as the experienced paddler. The woods provide shelter from the wind, and the water is shallow. Kitty Hawk Kayaks in Kitty Hawk at MP 1, next to Islander Flags. 3 to 6 p.m. Cost $35. Kitty Hawk Kayak and Surf School
