Campground Overview

About Frisco Campground

Frisco Campground offers a unique coastal camping experience, blending rugged dune landscapes with easy beach access and serene ocean views. This National Park Service campground strikes a balance between natural immersion and basic comforts, appealing to those seeking a genuine Outer Banks adventure.

Situated within Cape Hatteras National Seashore, Frisco Campground features sites nestled among rolling sand dunes and maritime forests. The campground's layout provides a sense of privacy, with many sites tucked away in vegetated pockets. Wooden boardwalks lead directly to the Atlantic shoreline, allowing campers to easily enjoy beach activities and stunning sunrises.

Located just outside the small village of Frisco on Hatteras Island, the campground serves as an ideal base for exploring the area's natural and cultural attractions. The iconic Cape Hatteras Lighthouse is a short drive away, offering climbing tours and historical exhibits. Nature enthusiasts can take advantage of nearby wildlife viewing opportunities, particularly for migratory birds and marine life.

The campground caters to both tent and RV campers, though it lacks hookups, fostering a more primitive camping atmosphere. Clean restrooms, cold-water showers, and drinking water spigots provide essential amenities without compromising the natural setting. The absence of RV hookups and limited shade contribute to a more rustic experience, attracting campers who prioritize connection with the coastal environment over modern conveniences.

Frisco Campground is well-suited for extended vacations, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in the Outer Banks' laid-back lifestyle and natural rhythms. The area's renowned fishing, surfing, and windsurfing opportunities make it a haven for water sports enthusiasts. For those seeking a genuine coastal camping experience with direct beach access and a backdrop of untamed dunes, Frisco Campground delivers an authentic slice of Outer Banks life.
