"Duck is a true beach town. The population goes from 300 to over 20,000 over the summer. Very relaxing to be here on vacation."

"I have been to many beaches throughout the country and Duck is my favorite beach town. If you like wide beaches, the ability to walk to town and shop and eat to your hearts desire then Duck is your kind of place. Duck is not a wild area such as VA Beach or Ocean City Maryland. Duck is Family Friendly. You can't put a price on that when you have children!!"
