From the Currituck Sound to the Atlantic Ocean, the town of Southern Shores is located south of Duck and north of Kitty Hawk.  This small community is convenient to beaches, restaurants and shopping. 

The Outer Banks of North Carolina, with over 130 miles of barrier island, is full of many ocean related activates.  Whether you come to fish, tour lighthouses, visit the Cape Hatteras National Seashore or simply spend time at the beach; there is plenty to do for the entire family.

Jim Kerr from Travel America writes "it's possible to visit the Outer Banks, plant yourself in a rented beach house, wander the shoreline, and go home with nothing more than a tan and a few fresh seafood dinners.  But you would miss the wide range of reasons why people have been coming here for centuries in pursuit of a new life, new inventions and new adventure".

Madaket Sunset (Madaket is the Native American word for sandy point) is a luxury rental property with all the amenities to make your vacation extraordinary.  Recent to the rental market, with July 2004 marking the first availability for this property.   Please see 'Accommodations" for a listing of what is included with each rental.   This magnificent home is close to a beautiful, sandy ocean beach with lifeguard.  From the spacious decks, there is a  spectacular view of Currituck Sound.  Bike paths are very close and allow you ride along Route 12 in Southern Shores, Duck and into Corolla.

The sound side is noted for incredible sunsets -- so sit on the deck, toast your friends and family or simply relax on the Adirondack furniture and watch nature's striking display.
