The Experience

Before You Go

Book off-peak for quieter bays

Weekday mornings and early afternoons are less busy—great for focused practice or small-group coaching.

Bring your own specialty gear

If you prefer your own clubs, gloves, or cleats, bring them; the simulators accommodate personal equipment.

Arrive early to set up

Give yourself 10–15 minutes before your rental to adjust settings, calibrate, and warm up.

Check cancellation policy

Rebookings and cancellations must be made at least 24 hours before your session to avoid charges.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Jockey’s Ridge State Park dunes for sunset views
  • Kitty Hawk Woods Coastal Reserve boardwalks and marsh overlooks

Wildlife

Conservation Note

Visitors should respect fragile dune systems and stick to marked paths; supporting local businesses like Turf’s Up OBX helps sustain year-round coastal recreation.

Kitty Hawk is famous as the site near where the Wright brothers made early powered flights in 1903, a legacy visible throughout the Outer Banks.
