When it comes to shopping for gifts, Duck’s shopping scene makes it a convenient and fun adventure. With galleries filled with local artists’ artwork and crafts, indie booksellers, gourmet markets that carry Outer Banks-inspired spice blends and treats and, of course, the classic Outer Banks-branded apparel at family clothing stores, it’s tempting to buy it all. And remember, it doesn’t have to be a gift for someone else – treating yourself is always an idea we can support.
