On Highway 64E going to the Outer Banks at the western end of the Alligator River Swing bridge





is a gas station/ souvenier /truck stop kind of place which is ALSO a marina. It's one of the cheapest docks on the ICW and also the fuel is a decent price.

The marina has a lighthouse sign at the entrance



This is the price of gasoline which is posted on the end of the fuel dock.





After the first time we went down the ICW, we have always stopped here on the way down and on the way back.







By itself, the lighthouse would be unremarkable as throughout NC and many other places, lighthouses are used as advertising signposts.
