Northern Outer Banks NC - Duck, Southern Shores, Kitty Hawk, Kill Devil Hills, and Nags Head Surf Report for 04-12-2025
Beach lovers and wave chasers, buckle up for your coastal adventure forecast!
The Outer Banks are serving up some serious maritime drama this weekend. Northern beaches from Duck to Nags Head are looking at a high-risk rip current scenario with surf heights dancing between 3 to 5 feet. Northwest winds around 15 mph will be whipping things up, so novice swimmers might want to think twice before diving in.
Hatteras Island is playing coastal roulette with varying conditions. North of Cape Hatteras, expect high rip current risks and 2 to 3 foot waves today, shifting to moderate risk tomorrow. Southern Hatteras beaches will see slightly calmer waters with 1 to 2 foot surf today.
Ocracoke Island brings a more mellow vibe with moderate rip current risks today and waters chilling in the mid-60s. Expect around 2 foot waves and mostly cloudy skies that'll gradually give way to sunny conditions.
Cape Lookout and Shackleford Banks are keeping things interesting with moderate rip risks on Core Banks and low risks on Shackleford. Water temperatures are sitting pretty in the mid-60s with a mix of cloudy and sunny conditions.
West Carteret beaches like Atlantic Beach are your safest bet with low rip current risks, gentle 1 to 2 foot waves, and temperatures climbing into the lower 60s.
Pro tip: Water's still chilly in the mid-50s to mid-60s range, so pack that wetsuit if you're planning to catch some waves. Stay safe, stay smart, and may the surf be with you!
