Day at the Docks began as a tribute to the “Spirit of Hatteras,” honoring the village’s resilience following Hurricane Isabel in 2003. Held each September, this event showcases the strength of community, the legacy of the island’s watermen, and the enduring maritime traditions that define Hatteras Island. Attendees can enjoy lively competitions, hands-on demonstrations, local seafood, children’s activities, entertainment, and educational exhibits. The day concludes with the heartfelt Blessing of the Fleet—a cherished tradition where island communities gather at the harbor to offer prayers for the safety and success of those who make their living on the sea.
