Carova sands
Carova Sands, near the Outer Banks of North Carolina, is a unique camping spot that offers a truly primitive experience. With just three sites available, it’s perfect for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle and immerse themselves in nature.
This campground is all about the wild side of camping. Visitors rave about the chance to see wild horses, deer, and even dolphins during their stay. One camper shared, “I was lucky enough to see the wild horses at camp & at the beach 3 out of 4 days I was there.” Just remember, this isn’t your typical campground—there are no water or toilet facilities, so come prepared with your own supplies.
The location is right on the sound and close to the beach, making it ideal for kayaking and exploring the beautiful surroundings. Campers have enjoyed hiking the beach and biking through nearby trails, with one reviewer noting, “I kayaked on the calm waters of the sound...hiked the beach and biked the trails.”
Greg and Mary, the hosts, are known for their hospitality and helpfulness, ensuring that you feel right at home. As one visitor put it, “Greg is an amazing communicator...he gave great instructions for finding the camp site.” If you’re up for an adventure and have a 4x4 vehicle, Carova Sands is definitely worth checking out for a memorable camping experience.
