Watersports reign supreme on the Hatteras shopping scene, and you can pick up any gear, equipment or accessories to practice your preferred style from the island’s watersports outfitters. The watersports and outdoor outfitters hook you up with surfboards, bodyboards, skimboards, standup paddleboards, kayaks and gear for windsurfing and kiteboarding. Purchase high-quality gear and accessories to set you up for optimal performance. If you’ve never tried a certain watersport, some of these Hatteras shops offer equipment rentals so you can decide if a particular sport is for you before committing to a purchase. Several of the watersports outfitters here also include onsite recreation facilities that offer lessons and fun programs.
