Lopez family summer vacation on the Outer Banks

World renowned professional surfer Cory Lopez and his family know a good summer vacation when they see it. Their last seven months saw them trotting the globe to find the best waves and contests in the world. 

One stop that’s always on the “Lopez World Tour” is a trip to Cape Hatteras mid summer to stay with us at Watermen’s Retreat. With a wide variety of consistent surf, warm water, and four wheel drive access to track down your own peak, this stretch of coastline is an easy drive-to surf score for families mid summer when the kids’ schedules loosen up. And for the non surfers in your group, it’s also ranked among the “Top 10 Beaches in America” year after year. It’s always great to see Cory and his family having so much fun while they’re here!

For the wind sports enthusiasts, the summer months are also some of our most consistent of the year, with upwards of 28 rideable days per month. That’s a lot of warm water sessions! 

Summer at the REAL Lesson Center sees lessons and camps on the water every day. So if you want to learn one of these sports, advance your skills, or have a friend that wants to “catch the bug”, bring them along and experience the Watermen’s Retreat advantage. It’s all right here!

Whether it’s surfing, kiting, winging, or just having a great time at the beach, now’s the time to start planning your summer trip to visit us at Watermen’s Retreat in Cape Hatteras, North Carolina!
