We can agree that shopping should be fun, and Hatteras shopping is fun. In fact, it should be a treat – which shopping definitely becomes when it includes a stop at one of Hatteras’ ice cream and sweets shops. Find distinctive and delectable souvenirs of gifts in the form of fudge, saltwater taffy, gourmet chocolates and other treats at the island’s candy and souvenir stores. For immediate gratification, however, visiting ice cream, snow cone, slushy and smoothie shops leave you with a sweet taste in your mouth after your shopping spree.
