★☆ 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 conveniently 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 striking sight though, so make sure you bring a camera!

Strategies for getting the perfect Currituck vacation property experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• In the Currituck area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental home up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Summer time is high season in Corolla. Reserve your Currituck vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Currituck area magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides contain coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning and choosing the best Currituck rental home:

• To start, have your family choose a vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Skyview by the Sea has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If not, email or call the property owner before reserving your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your family.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges applied to your invoice.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• During check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Just before checking out, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on good feedback to inspire future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your review find their best vacation home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
