The 10 Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina (NC)

January 9, 2022 Mikaela Didonna

With water, water everywhere, visitors to Kill Devil HIlls indulge in fishing and crabbing, quiet kayaking, robust surfing or parasailing, peaceful seaside cycling and that favorite, toes-in-the-sand enjoyment of the beach.This barrier island township is the center of the Northern beach and home to about 7,000 year-round residents. Summer welcomes visitors anxious to share the natural landscapes and village-like appeal. Savor long stretches of Atlantic views and silky sands. If you’re a history buff, visit area lighthouses and the National Memorial honoring Wilbur and Orville Wright, who accomplished the first controlled powered flight in 1903. In nearby Kitty Hawk, Seascape Golf Links challenge players with changing elevations and coastal landscapes. A popular day trip just 17 miles to the southwest, the Fort Raleigh National Historic Site, Elizabeth Gardens and live performances of “The Lost Colony” combine to preserve and present the background of Native American culture and Sir Walter Raleigh’s colonization efforts in the late 1500’s.

This is a artist operated gallery with various mediums on display (oil, watercolor, pottery, jewelry, photography, mosaic sculpture to name a few) all by local artists. This was an interesting gallery, one of many of many on our cool day gallery morning. We bought some locally sourced, small batch honey. Yum!

Reviewed By hartlife - Columbus, United States

My wife was looking for a very specific piece of driftwood to use as a centerpiece and saw this place as we were driving by. The owner is very friendly. He is knowledgeable of the area and easy going. We thought the prices were fair for everything we looked at in the store. There is a good selection of bird related decor items and a. few turtles and others as well. The driftwood prices were very cheap! Much less than anywhere else we had seen. Nice local place to get some unique pieces.

OBX Art Studio

Drop in, do it yourself art studio featuring paint-your-own-pottery and canvas painting. Started as Glazin' Go-Nuts, The Outer Banks original paint-your-own pottery studio in 1999. We grew over the years and are now operating under one name, the OBX Art Studio. Great fun for the whole family- very kid friendly! Enjoy coffee and baked goods next door at the Front Porch Cafe.

Reviewed By ClaireWithLove

Our family visits every year, rainy day or not, to paint a ceramic. On rainy days, you have to go early or else be put on a waiting list. There is a coffee stop that sells a few pastries and has a few tables next door. You pay a fee to paint and another one for each ceramic piece (price varies), and you receive your choice of five colors. You select the colors from a plate showing the colors.. You can select more colors for an extra charge. They will refill them. It was $290 to paint six pieces. We were there 4.5 hours due to the complexity of painting for two of the pieces (the snake mug and a many sided vase) - See the photos uploaded separately. The ladies were nice and did not try to hurry us out even though there was a waiting list and most people were there much shorter times. There were a lot of empty space on the shelves to select your item to paint when we went on a Monday but on Friday, the shelves were fully stocked with many wonderful new pieces to paint. They just got a new shipment in. It takes four days to fire your piece before you can get them back. If you have to leave before it is done, then they can mail them to you. They have always arrived fine.

RC Kill Devil Hills Movies 10

Reviewed By ionesagem - Three Springs, United States

My husband and I were supposed to do a dolphin watch but the weather and lack of participants had us struggling to find something to do on our last full day in the area. We chose movies and were able to pick one that we both wanted to see. Ample parking. We were surprised that we were not the only people with the same good idea. The employees got the lines going pretty good. I thought that the prices were a little high for a matinee (and senior) but not too crazy. I was very happy that Coke Slushies were part of the menu. Unexpected. And OMG the medium popcorn was huge. It was also very tasty and possibly the best popcorn I ever had. Nicely buttered and salted. By the time we got to our seats I was in heaven. I wish we had left earlier because I love the trailers. My husband doesn't so we left later than I would have but got to see a couple of them anyway. My only complaint was that the change machine was broken. We would have loved to have had our pictures taken in the booth!!!

Mom's is a unique store on the main road that offers shopping including all of the brand name products such as Hershel, Benny Gold, Nike, Adidas, etc. Mom's also sells vintage jewelry and clothing. Also, if you are looking for a cool treat or have a sweet tooth this is the perfect location. The milkshakes and ice cream are extremely delicious. There is a smorgasbord of candy to choose from where you pay by weight. The owners are very active within in the shop and work hard to keep the environment friendly and enjoyable for everyone. I would definitely recommend visiting!
