Frequently asked questions

What is the best time to go to Waves?
The best time to go for a Waves vacation package is during late spring and early summer, specifically from May to June. These months offer warm temperatures ideal for beach activities, often accompanied by a refreshing afternoon sea breeze. While the Atlantic hurricane season officially begins in June, the highest risk for hurricane strikes typically occurs from late August through September.

For travelers looking to avoid the warmest temperatures and the peak of hurricane season, October can be a good alternative, offering milder weather. However, it's important to note that the broader hurricane season extends through November. Planning your Waves vacation around these periods can help you make the most of your beach and outdoor experience.
How can I save money on a Waves vacation package?
When you bundle, you can save up to 30%*. To save money on a Waves package, consider traveling during the quieter months or be flexible with your dates to find more options. Bundling your flights and hotel together often unlocks savings compared to booking separately. *Members only. Savings vary.
Is Waves better suited for a beach vacation or a cultural trip?
Waves is primarily a beach and outdoor destination, making it ideal for travelers seeking coastal relaxation and nature activities. Its name itself comes from the ocean waves, and the area is home to expansive sandy stretches like Rodanthe Beach and the broader Outer Banks Beaches. The nearby Cape Hatteras National Seashore further emphasizes its natural appeal, offering scenic views and opportunities for adventure.

The historic Rasmus Midgett House offers a glimpse into the area's past. Overall, a Waves vacation is best suited for those prioritizing sun, sand, and outdoor exploration. Your Waves vacation package can be tailored to include stays near these natural highlights.

Do you need to rent a car in Waves, or is public transport enough?
For a Waves vacation package, renting a car is highly recommended for exploring the area's natural attractions and beaches. Waves is an outdoor and nature destination, and its points of interest, such as Outer Banks Beaches and Cape Hatteras National Seashore, are spread out. A car provides the flexibility to visit these scenic spots at your own pace and to travel to and from regional airports like Elizabeth City-Pasquotank County Regional (ECG).

While many resorts in Waves offer on-site amenities and direct beach access, a rental car allows you to venture further for dining, shopping, and other activities beyond your accommodation. For Waves beach vacation packages, a car lets you fully experience all the coastal beauty and outdoor adventures the region has to offer. Including a rental car in your Waves vacation package can enhance your exploration of the area.
