Public Boat Ramp is Now Open!

Road repairs are complete and the public boat ramp at Currituck Heritage Park is again open from dawn until dusk. As always, parking and day use of the ramp are free and we invite boaters to take time to tour the 1920's Whalehead Club while they are in the park. The tour is self-guided, using a handheld audio device, so there are no lines and no waiting!
