Sightseeing around town can be done by driving or strolling through town, but to see a different side of Southern Shores and Duck, NC, explore it from the water. Knowledgeable and fun guides from the towns’ watersports businesses lead groups around the marsh, sound and canals via boat or board. Try a kayak tour led in the marsh, skirt around the edges of the sound with a standup paddleboard or kick back on a spacious catamaran as the captain pilots you across the sound.
