Sunset Festival

About the Event

Join us for the FREE Sunset Festival at Jockey’s Ridge Crossing! Enjoy some great activities and fun while you shop at some of the best stores on the beach. The Outer Banks has one of the best places to view the evening Sunset on Jockey’s Ridge Sand Dunes.

Stop by the Kitty Hawk Kites store to pick up a kite to fly while watching the sunset. Life on a Sandbar has a little bit of everything, including sand art projects, cool hair wraps/braids, and beautiful jewelry. Try some of the best homemade ice cream on the Outer Banks at Jockey’s Ridge Creamery and some amazing fudge at the Fudgery. Make memories that will last forever at OBX Old Time Photos. Abbi’s Teas and Things/Sudden Light Records has a sip and a song to nestle in the nostalgia. Silver Line Jewelry, Art & Unique Finds has multiple jewelry lines made from up-cycled and recycled materials, that also support local businesses.  Make sure to stop by the Kitty Hawk Surf Co. for Hobie Kayaks and browse great new items from Salty Crew, Rip Curl, Vans, Hurley, and more.
