The sand dunes of Jockey’s Ridge offer an unparalleled view from sound to sea and form the largest active sand dune system on the East Coast. From the dunes, local landmarks can be seen in the distance, and legend tells of spectators lining the sands to watch wild mustangs race below. Today, the dunes remain a place for climbing to a vantage point that reveals the activity, history, and scenery of the coast.
