Avalon Pier on the Outer Banks is a must-stop attraction to complete your OBX experience. Avalon Fishing Pier is a classic structure located in Kill Devil Hills with a bait and tackle store, throwback arcade with games and pool tables, and a small cafe to enjoy delicious snacks. For $2 admission, you can stroll to the end of the Avalon Pier for a unique vantage point of the Outer Banks, looking back on the shoreline. For those looking to cast a line in the waters, you may purchase a daily or weekly fishing pass to try your hand at catching flounders, stripers, or whatever is biting (all depends on the day, the season, and your skill!).
The Avalon Pier was built in 1962 and has withstood its fair share of nor’easters and hurricanes. It remains a place where Outer Banks locals gather to fish and surf, and out of towners visit for a taste of nostalgic Outer Banks history.
When you are planning your Outer Banks vacation, be sure to make some time for a stop at Avalon Pier!
