    Metal Detecting and Treasure Hunting in the Outer Banks

    Treasure hunters are everywhere on the Outer Banks of North Carolina! With all the ship wrecks and pirates tales it’s no wonder that treasure hunters abound! Items of value can be found on the beaches by simple metal detecting. During the tourist season, it is best to detect in the early morning or evening hours. The off-season months are even better because the currents and surf are stronger and they expose more treasure to the seekers.

    Be aware of the locations you choose to do your detecting. Most of the beach from Nags Head north to Virginia are available for metal detecting. Hatteras Island and Ocracoke Island are off limits. The National Parks Service prohibits the use of metal detectors in all the National Parks in the Outer Banks.
