National Park Service and Dare County Urge Visitors to Use Caution When Attempting to Access New Sandbar<br />

Over the last two to three months, a large sandbar has formed off Cape<br />

Hatteras National Seashore (Seashore) in the Cape Point area. Due to the<br />

number of recent water rescues the Hatteras Island Rescue Squad has<br />

made between the tip of Cape Point and the sandbar, the National Park<br />

Service and Dare County are urging all park visitors to use caution when<br />

attempting to access the offshore sandbar.<br />

The Cape Point area is a highly dynamic location that is constantly changing<br />

through both erosion and accretion of sand. Currents between Cape<br />

Point and offshore sandbars can be very strong; therefore, the Seashore<br />

does not recommend that visitors swim or wade to these areas. The life<br />

guarded beaches at Coquina Beach, Hatteras Lighthouse Beach, and the<br />

Ocracoke Day Use Area Beach are excellent choices for swimming, especially<br />

when conditions bring dangerous rip currents to the area.<br />

If interested in accessing the new sandbar, Seashore Superintendent<br />

David Hallac states that, “traveling to the sandbar is best accomplished by<br />

experienced kayakers or paddle boarders that are using appropriate flotation<br />

and mindful of the tides and strong currents in the area.”<br />
