Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge NC allows for sea turtles and nesting birds to lay eggs with protection and areas are clearly marked. No driving on the wide beach here. A lone surfer sprints to catch a few summer waves and is zero threat to the environment. National Park regulations are often at odds with local fishermen’s wishes and traditions yet overall there’s a nice balance between people use and wildlife management. #outerbanks #peaisland
