What happened to the Lost Colony of Roanoke? Okay, no one knows. You might have a theory or two once you visit this national historic site on Roanoke Island. This was the first settlement in the New World.

Come in the summer to see a play about the Lost Colony staged at the monument's amphitheater. The play has become an institution in itself, going on for 80 years now.

Camp right on Roanoke Island or on the nearby Outer Banks at a spot you find at Hipcamp. Pitch your tent in the woods or on a farm, and cozy up around a campfire at night to enjoy your stay.
