    Shallowbag Bay Marina is a quiet little marina with a lot of personality,
    We traveled with another sailing vessel and a motor vessel to visit Manteo and the Outer Banks, and chose the marina sight unseen, and we are glad we did. The Dock Masters are friendly and knowledgeable , the facilities are clean and in good repair.
    Stripers restaurant was very good and the helpings were plentiful. Darrels restaurant at the other end of the marina serves a heaping breakfast,
    If you need transportation, contact the local Ford Dealer for a rental. "Doc" picked us up, shared some local knowledge and set us on our way. They came to the marina on departure day and picked up the vehicle, great service.
    Pay strict attention to the navigation aids. Proceed at a caution speed, pay attention to the tide and wind., we experienced 2 soft grounding on the way in.. "Oh Well..Shoaling Happens! '
    All told, it was a great place to stay
