If you love to fish and have chosen one of the Outer Banks vacation rentals, you are on your way to heaven. This is an ancient fishing village and as close to heaven as an angler can hope to get while still breathing.
The Village of Wanchese has been proven by archeological finds and artifacts to be one of the oldest fishing villages in the Outer Banks, and definitely the oldest on Roanoke Island. The marinas, shrimp, crab and fishing boats are telltale signs that fishing is still what Wanchese does. You can find places all around the town’s waterways and beaches to fish. Make friends with a friendly local and you may be privy to one of the secret honey holes of the area. There are a number of
charters to choose from on Wanchese. If you like fishing you will love Wanchese.
If you like to eat fish you will love Wanchese. You will not have to worry about cooking up your catch back at one of the Outer Banks vacation rentals after fishing all day, unless you want to. There are a number of family owned restuarants who will be glad to fix up your catch of the day to order, if you would like. If by chance, you have proven why it is called fishing and not catching then you can still enjoy a number of local seafood dishes offered by the charming and delicious eateries.
Just as the town of Wanchese offers you a time and place to relax while enjoying the people and things you love, so will the Outer Banks vacation rentals.
