Located on the beautiful Outer Banks of North Carolina, Avon illustrates better than any other place the lure of living between water and woods. It is often called the hub of Hatteras Island…
Discover the beauty of Avon. If there is a commercial center to Hatteras Island it’s Avon. Located nine miles south of Salvo, the village has a shopping plaza that includes a supermarket and hardware store as well as a number of locally owned restaurants and craft stores.
In operation since 1963, the Avon Pier is one of the best fishing piers along the Outer Banks. A wooden pier, it’s 665’ long so it gets out past the surf zone where some of the bigger fish are waiting to take some bait. It’s especially well-known for red drum landings, but just about everything imaginable has been caught off the pier.
