Duck, NC Nightlife

The nightlife scene in Duck is as good as it gets in a beach town. Duck Village spans approximately one mile north to south, so many of the nightlife spots are walking distance from one another, which makes it easy to do an afternoon or evening bar crawl.

If you’re staying just outside of town, biking into town for the evening is definitely an option since the sidewalk/bike path runs the entire length of the town. Bars in Duck NC were made for summer nights, with frosty drinks, live music, karaoke, yard games...you get the idea!
