swim beaches in North Carolina?

Are there any?

Someone at work told me it's all swamps, but I find that hard to believe.

Thanks.

We've been going to the Outer Banks for many years. It's a much slower laid back pace than any other beach I've been to. http://www.outerbanks.org/

Agreed. Atlantic Beach / Moorehead City are where I've been several times. Not overly toursity like Myrtle beach or VA beach but still a good time.

I've been to Duck Beach in NC and Hilton Head in SC. I can remember in Hilton Head the water temperature felt like warm bath water. I am not a big fan of cold water swimming so that was awesome. I think it was in mid June. Someone said it was because of the gulfstream or something.

Your friend at work is an idiot. What part of the NC coast do they consider swampy?
