Things to Do on the OBX for October 6th 2024

Good morning from the Outer Banks! 🌞 For today’s "OBX Things To-Do" on October 6, 2024, Manteo will enjoy sunny skies with a high near 76°F and a brisk northeast wind around 14 mph, gusting up to 20 mph. Tonight, expect partly cloudy conditions with a low around 66°F and continued northeast winds at 11 mph. Tomorrow will bring more sun, with a slight chance of showers in the afternoon, but overall pleasant weather for exploring the coast​.

Currently, the ocean water temperature is around 74°F, making it suitable for a quick dip if the wind allows. A Beach Hazards Statement remains in effect until 8 PM tonight due to strong rip currents, so stay cautious around the water today​

With Thanksgiving just 47 days away, now is a great time to plan your holiday in the Outer Banks. The fall season offers less crowded beaches, local events, and beautiful coastal scenery—perfect for a memorable family gathering.
