Northern Outer Banks NC - Duck, Southern Shores, Kitty Hawk, Kill Devil Hills, and Nags Head Surf Report for 05-10-2025
Surf's up, beach lovers! Get ready for a day of sun, waves, and some serious coastal conditions along the Outer Banks.
The Northern Outer Banks are serving up a high-risk rip current scenario today, so swimmers beware. Expect surf heights around 2 to 3 feet with those crisp north winds blowing 5 to 10 miles per hour. The water's sitting pretty in the upper 60s, and you'll want to slather on that sunscreen because the UV index is cranked up to high.
Heading down to Hatteras Island, things get a bit more intense. North of Cape Hatteras, we've got a high rip current risk that'll keep lifeguards on their toes. Winds are whipping at 10 to 15 miles per hour, pushing those waves and creating some serious undertow. Water temperatures have climbed to the lower 70s, making for a more inviting splash zone.
Ocracoke Island is riding a moderate rip current risk wave today. Expect northeast winds around 10 to 15 miles per hour and surf that'll keep board riders entertained with 2 to 3 foot swells.
Cape Lookout and Core Banks are showing a mixed bag - moderate rip currents on the banks with slightly calmer conditions on Shackleford Banks. Water temperatures are hovering around 70, and those northeast winds are keeping things interesting.
Looking ahead to Sunday, conditions will start to shift. Expect more cloud cover, a chance of rain, and slightly less aggressive surf. Winds will become lighter and more easterly, and rip current risks will generally decrease.
Bottom line: Today's a high-energy beach day with some serious marine conditions. Stay alert, respect the waves, and never surf alone. Catch you on the flip side, wave riders!
