About Ocracoke


Ocracoke Island’s beauty is due to its isolation as part of North Carolina’s barrier island system - the Outer Banks. While this isolation is a reason for the pristine beauty, it is also what makes it a community in constant relationship with the natural and wild elements that surround it. There is an abundance of blessings in owning a home on Ocracoke and some unique challenges to be aware of as well. At The Rich Company of Ocracoke, we ensure you are fully prepared in order to best enjoy the ownership of an Ocracoke home.
