Things to Do on the OBX for September 9th 2024
🌞 Good morning, OBX lovers! It’s September 9, 2024, and we’re looking at a fantastic sunny day with a high near 78°F, and a refreshing northeast breeze at 11 mph with gusts up to 18 mph.
The perfect conditions to enjoy the coastal beauty of the Outer Banks as we count down the last 13 days until the official end of summer! The ocean is calling, with water temperatures at a delightful 81°F—ideal for a swim or a leisurely stroll along the shore.
For those interested in the tides today, the high tides will occur at 12:00 AM (2.8 ft) and 12:35 PM (3.4 ft), while low tides are at 6:02 AM (0.9 ft) and 7:04 PM (1.1 ft). Whether you're planning to hit the beach or go boating, make sure to time your adventures accordingly.
Enjoy this late summer day and savor every last bit of sunshine! 🌊
