if I have lived in NC all of my life and never went to the outer banks does that make me a retard?

No, you were already a ruh-tard.

I didnt go until college, its really cool. Just sort of a long drive.

IMO a beach is a beach... I'd rather be somewhere like Wilm/Wrightsville Beach where there's other stuff to do... but then again I've always lived near the beach so it's not a big deal to me.

Key West is one of the cooler beaches Ive seen. I liked Cayman Islands and Bahamas too, but man, nothin beats being at NC beaches ur whole life and then driving to Key West for Spring Break and seeing Palm trees growing out of the sand!

yeah, OBX and BHI are pretty much "get away from it all" spots whereas Wilmington and places like Atlantic Beach/Emerald Isle have other things to offer besides the beach itself...

I always hit Myrtle, Wilmington and Charleston every summer. MB just for the Americana itch to be scratched. It's like drinking a PBR a couple of times a year. Charleston for sites and history and Wilm for the relatives and in laws. Oh and free golf.

Jhyler, I guess I should ask what kind of beach vacation? It depends on how old you are and what type of weekend you want... If you're looking for more of a romantic weekend with just the wife, but still hit up a few places.. I'd recommend Duck, OBX. It's more laid back, low key, but has a few bars/restaurants that might be the perfect atmosphere you are looking for... If you are younger and expect to get out past 11pm and see what the night brings.. I would definitely recommend more of the Wilmington area.. a ton to do and plenty of people to mingle with.. hell, if you're looking for a low key type of adventure I could tell you a great camping spot on a sandbar near Cape Lookout, where no one will be.. Right next to the lighthouse..

There is so much to do in this state..

it just means you're severely deprived...

here's an idea...go somewhere different!!!

why would you vacation near the same place you live? go out and see a different part of the country/world!

[The Saltman]

not all of us are rich like u hawk

[bleys]

if I lived in Canadia, I would travel out of the country as often as possible...

there's a method to Hawk's madness in his travels to Panther games..

[Hawk]

vacation is vacation...not saying you need to travel to New Zealand...just go see something different!!!

and bleys...I'd travel anywhere I could regardless of where I lived...but...to respond to you...come on up anytime...I'll show you lots of places you'd fall in love with I am sure!

I only kid.. There is a ton of fishing and hunting I'd like to cross off my bucket list.. and when I do you'll be the first I call! (and not because you're the only one I know... alright, that might have something to do with it..)

[Hawk]

please do!

I spend a ton of time at Topsail.

So don't go there.
