There was a quick mention of the Outer Banks on, Island paradises are closer than you think. 

     With adjacent seas nicknamed the Graveyard of the Atlantic, the Outer Banks are home to rough waters that are often more ideal for surfing than swimming. Nancy Schretter, managing editor of the travel website Family Travel Network, recommends Hatteras Island, along the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, for "its miles and miles of pristine beaches with very white sand and rolling dunes." Hatteras visitors can bring dogs on the beach, a bonus for travelers who want to vacation with their pets.
