The slender chain of barrier islands located off the east coast of North Carolina known as the Outer Banks is fully surrounded by water. On the eastside of the Island you’ll see the sunrise over the Atlantic Ocean and on the West side of the island, you'll be able to watch breathtaking sunsets over the sound. A Sound is a large body of water situated between two bodies of land that connects to the sea or ocean. Some areas have less water and look a bit marshy while other areas can be quite deep. Soundfront refers to homes located in the lot closest to this body of water. If you’re on the OBX you don’t want to miss a soundfront sunset!
