just north of rodanthe at the southern end of pea island on the cape hatteras national seashore, the road s-turns several hundred yards before a group of large vacation houses (the break does shift north or south year to year, however). if the waves are halfway decent you'll see plently of surfers and their cars parked along the road. do not park in the sand! keep two tires on the road, and walk over the sand dunes to the waves.
