Part of the North Carolina Coastal Reserve Program, Currituck Banks is designated as one of four sites in the North Carolina National Estuarine Research Reserve. The Coastal Reserves operate as living laboratories for research, education and management.

When visiting Currituck Banks, take the 1/3 mile boardwalk which begins at the parking lot and leads to a view of Currituck Sound. A 1.5 mile primitive trail departs from the boardwalk and heads north through a maritime forest.

NC DENR provides lesson plans and videos for pre-visit activities. See the Teachers & Students area of the website.
