I went to Nags Head last weekend, and was wondering if anyone knows who claims ownership/jurisdiction over the public beaches there. Would it be the City of Nags Head? Is it part of the National Seashore? Is it State property?
There were a lot of signs about the rules of the beach (no glass bottles, no vehicles, stay off the dunes, etc) but nothing about firearms, or no reference to who actually owned it.
If the City owns the beach, then OC would be legal. If the beach is a National Seashore area, I'm pretty sure OC is good, but if it's a NC state park, then any form of carry is a no-go.
We were there in the late afternoon (after 5pm) so there were no lifeguards on duty, and we didn't see any ATV-mounted cops like you sometimes see in the daytime, so there was nobody to ask...
