Kill Devil Hills things to do are numerous and lively. The town's great beaches host surfers, kayakers and anglers. Kill Devil Hills recreation is mostly outdoors centered, but you can also relax in a 10-plex movie theater on hot summer days (or cold winter nights!) or paint pottery, bead, tie-dye and play laser tag.
One of the most popular Kill Devil Hills things to do is to surf. If you've never surfed, you can rent equipment and even take surfing lessons while you're here. For anglers, you'll find all the gear and bait you need in local tackle shops. You'll also get advice on where to go to catch what's biting. Stop in before you head to the beach or pier.
For kids, Kill Devil Hills recreation includes playgrounds, go-carts and mini-golf courses when you need a break from the beach. The whole family can enjoy biking. If you didn't bring bicycles along with you, you can rent them for the whole family from bike or rental shops. Below we've given a few bike routes and some tips on safe biking in town.
The Outer Banks is home to many outstanding artists, and Kill Devil Hills recreation includes many top-quality galleries where you can see their work on display then get creative yourself with craft workshops and a paint your own pottery studio.
