Who needs snow? There are a lot of great reasons to visit the Outer Banks during the holidays. The folks at Currituck County Travel & Tourism have come up with six great reasons to spend some holiday time in Corolla.
“The number one selling song of all time is Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas” – and for good reason. Just hearing this legendary crooner’s voice makes us reminisce about Christmases gone by – the smell of pine from a freshly cut tree, priceless memories of family and friends laughing and enjoying each other’s company or a fresh blanket of powdery snow covering the ground on Christmas morning.
But what if you could exchange the snow for sand this year and spend Christmas at the beach? It does have its advantages.
Kids can still play in the “white stuff.”
Who doesn’t like to make a snow angel or build a snowman for Christmas? And who can forget those epic snowball fights against those second cousins who came to visit for the first time in like…ever. Well, kids young and old can just as easily play in the beachy “white stuff” – sand – and have just as much fun! And the great thing about playing in the sand during the holidays is that it won’t get in your boots and freeze your tootsies off. Not to mention there is no shoveling required. Sand between your toes? Just a quick dust off will do. And if you do get cold, just relax in the hot tub. Woohoo!”
