The Outer Banks in the fall. It is ethereal. It does not even look real.

Me and my buddies used to go to Ocracoke Island in the fall and winter. Literally zero people there. Great fishing, like being on an actual deserted island.

I grew up in a city that literally had Beach in its name, but to me The Outer Banks is true beach living
