The Outer Banks are a 200-mile (320-km) string of narrow barrier islands off the coast of North Carolina. From north to south—Bodie Island, Roanoke Island, Hatteras Island, and Ocracoke Island. They separate the Albemarle Sound and Pamlico Sound from the Atlantic Ocean.

The Wright Brothers' first flights took place on the Outer Banks on December 17, 1903, at Kill Devil Hills, near Kitty Hawk. The Wright Brothers National Memorial Monument commemorates the historic flights.
