★☆ RULES AND REGULATIONS WHEN EXPLORING 4X4 AREA ☆★

☀ Your car must also be licensed and registered for highway use which means motorbikes, all-terrain cars, and utility cars are not allowed.
☀ Vehicles with more than two axles are not allowed for driving on the beach. Likewise, utility cars are not allowed and all-terrain cars are prohibited for non-residents. These cars do not do well in the sand and will likely get stuck.
☀ If you get stuck you have two options: call a commercial towing service or figure out a way to get your car out yourself. Either way, you're going to either spend a lot of money for a towing service or possibly cause damage to your car!
☀ Any law applicable on the roads of North Carolina also apply to off-road cars, including following posted speed limits (15 mph when traveling within 300 feet of any person or animal on the beach), prohibited open containers, and seat belt laws. Make sure to have your license, registration, insurance up-to-date and effortlessly accessible.
☀ Pedestrians always have the right of way so make sure to keep an eye out for other beach-goers including family pets. If closer than 300 feet, reduce speed to 5 mph.
☀ From the Friday before Memorial Day through Labor Day, between 9:00am and 5:00pm, all cars are to be parked in the area east of the dune line, but west of the hard packed sand, and adjacent to the water's edge when parked, and the middle of the beach is considered the "driving lane". No personal items or cars are allowed within the driving lanes.
No parking is allowed on the beach prior to milepost 14 where the beach is not wide enough for other travelers.
☀ There are two types of recreational parking permits: seasonal and 10-day. These permits are nonrefundable and nontransferable so make sure you get the one that best suits your needs. You can apply for your permit here.
☀ You must print all pages of the permit. Page one must be signed in order for the permit to be valid. Keep this page in your glove box. A printed proof of permit must be on display in the driver's lower corner of the windshield while on the beach.
☀ Seasonal passes are complimentary to Currituck County residents and property owners and available to visitors for $150. 10-day passes are $50 for visitors.

TIPS
☀ Let air out of your tires to 15-20 psi before getting to the ramp. This gives your tires more surface area and therefore better traction. Over-inflated tires will make it more likely for your car to get stuck.
☀ Pick your destination in advance and pay special attention to the tides throughout the day! At high tide, many areas are only wide enough for one lane or become impassible altogether. You don't want to wait until the last min. and be stuck or wind up in dangerous conditions.
☀ Fill up your gas tank before driving onto the beach as there are no gas stations in the 4x4 area.
☀ Watch for wild horses! The horses have complimentary reign to roam the beaches of Carova and are protected by law. If you happen to see them, do not attempt to feed or pet them and remain at least 50 feet away at all times to avoid a citation. They are an amazing sight though, so make sure you bring a camera!

Rental booking tips and tricks:

When to reserve a Currituck rental home & When to go:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Currituck area. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is an excellent way to save money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Currituck area visitor guide magazines which include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• First and foremost, have your group select a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Skyview by the Sea has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before reserving the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what is suitable for your vacation.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property manager about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a certain Currituck attraction you crave, browse homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Know before you go:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many concerns.
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas during check in. Call the rental manager right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an excellent resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great feedback to inspire more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
