Kiteboarding is a very popular thing to do in Nags Head. The Roanoke Sound, which is shallow and calm, is perfect for beginners to learn to the sport, and lessons are available. On windy days, you’ll see dozens of colorful kites flying over the sound as kiteboarders zip back and forth over the water. Experienced kiteboarders also enjoy kiteboarding on the ocean waves. In Nags Head, NC, kiteboarding is concentrated around milepost 16 on the sound.
