Gull Isle is a sandbar/small island in Pamlico Sound, off the soundside coast of Hatteras Island between Salvo and Avon. This unique spot is accessed by riding out from the sound — you need to kite out to the sandbar. The island is a refuge for seabirds (hence "Gull Isle" — seagull island). Water around it is shallow and flat, offering a unique playground in the middle of the sound. Intermediate spot as it requires riding through deeper water to get there.
Open all year round
Intermediate
Flat water on Pamlico Sound around a sandbar. Depth varies — shallow on the bar, deeper around it. Sandy bottom on the bar itself. The spot offers a unique experience of riding "in the middle of nowhere" on the sound. Excellent conditions for freeride and wingfoil.
Requires riding through deeper water to reach the bar — not suitable for beginners. Respect wildlife — seabirds nest on the island, keep distance from nesting areas. Stingrays possible. Jellyfish in summer. Isolated in the middle of the sound — if wind dies, the swim back is long. Afternoon thunderstorms possible in summer.
