9.  Check Out Cape Hatteras National Seashore

This place in the Outer Banks includes goes from the edge of the Ocracoke inlet to the Oregon Inlet’s borders. While many travelers travel here to simply sit on the soft sands, there are other things to see here too. For example, there is a trio of historic lighthouses. 

You can visit two of them. Both the Bodie Island Lighthouse and the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse are seasonally open to the public. They both offer stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean, Bodie Island, and Pamlico Sound. 

10.  North Carolina Arboretum

This exceptional arboretum encompasses 434 acres. It was founded in 1986 and is nestled in the verdant Bent Creek Experimental Forest south of Asheville, adjacent to the previously mentioned Blue Ridge Parkway. The arboretum was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted who also designed the landscape around the Biltmore Estate. It includes 65 acres of beautiful, cultivated gardens. Highlights include bonsai trees, various indoor and outdoor events and exhibitions, sculpture displays, and more than 10 miles of scenic hiking trails.
