Home sweet home. How blessed I am my parents grind so hard to etch out a living here. Born and raised on the outer banks and wouldn’t change a thing.

So crazy. It's mother nature doing her thing. But the obvious holds such a special place in my wife and myself heart. She has so many memories as a little girl growing up on the beach see the light house every morning going to school in Buxton.

This is amazing to see. Knowing I have driven down hwy 12. It's just so beautiful 😍.

Thank you Altitude 12 for your tremendous overview of the villages, highway 12. It is so enlightening to see what is going on for ourselves. I have and my families have some long history on Cape Hatteras. I wish my great grandparents could have seen this spectacular view. Thanks again for your great work❗️

Astonishing mother nature is awesome I wish the people good luck and peace 🇬🇧🦖🇺🇸

Damn...I love the quietness of Rodanthe. I need to buy a house there

The sand dunes at the outer banks are HUGE. Rented a house last year and the only view of the ocean was from the 3rd floor. All other floors were blocked by a dune.

Mother nature always wins!

mother nature always wins

Looks like a natural path for ocean overflow. Not sure why these houses are in the overflow path.

Great drone footage.

Awesome shots

Fantastic video! thank you

I wished i lived there.

Love where I live Ocean isle beach NC because I get to have surf from here to Wilmington NC and get to travel A few hours here to OBX often for waves. We’re going to be in buxton and Frisco this weekend for surf

Thinking about those nice homes that people have built over the years and one day the Atlantic will wash them all away.

I love this area with all my heart, makes me sad that this beautiful sandbar is under relentless assault from the elements. That northern side of Rodanthe has always been way to close to the sea, one by one the homes have fallen into the sea, only one lucky house was moved to a safer location that looks less secure with every storm. 💕

Is that a shark flipping at about 1:12-1:21? That’s crazy!

Last Year : I have a house at the beach This Year : I have a house ON the beach Next Year : I have a house buried by the beach...

I work down there and have actually had my car stall out trying to get through it.

Mother nature is something. Hopefully the peoele there will have enough sense this time to rebuild further away from the ocean where they will be safe and their homes will be safe. Common sense is all it takes.

love my home!

Some humongous sand dunes, WOWW

Yep, Now you see why they're building the Jug handle bridge.

Meanwhile in Wildwood NJ people be like "dang the beach just keeps getting bigger every year....such a pain to walk that far to the water" Funny thing is a trailer park with cheap movable places to live would make the most sense on a barrier island with errosion and hurricanes but they are considered too low class to have there so people build their mansions and try to fight off mother nature.

Hmmm.. think some of those houses need to be moved back.

what happened?

Who insures those houses

😢😢😭😭

You can get a deal ....buyers market

I live in the mountains rivers streams ponds lakes fields valleys pine trees . There beauty everywhere but honestly it isn't overly attractive the obx

From Oregon Inlet south, this is one of the most desolate and God-forsaken areas in America. Movies and drones would have you believe how beautiful and relaxing it is. It ain't. Mosquitoes keep you indoors unless it's blowing like hell...relentless storms...corrosion is an onslaught...grocery shopping extremely difficult. Lived in Avon for years and never again. Hate the place.

Only in America do we not take the bull by the horns and do beach replenishment correctly. The so call naturalist say " oh no you can't move that sand. It'll hurt the eco system ". Well doesn't the storms change the bottom and displace shell fish etc. Ahh yes it does. In Holland they don't play they replace the lost land not in small amounts. But in leaps and bounds. 5 years ago I met and spoke with the company studying the sand for replenishment these. They told me that they could get the proper type of sand only 200 yards from shore . But the powers to be made them go 1/2 mile off shore at a lot great cost. Here at the S turn they need to make the beach 150' wider not 50' . Also that temp bridge was a waste of $$$$$. They could have closed the breach and saved time and $$$$. The ocean did it naturally. I think the ecologist or some one just doesn't want you to enjoy the beach. The same with those birds. They are all over inland Maryland and along ocean city Maryland. This non sense has to be stopped. And common sense needs to be used.
