cape hatteras is a thin, broken strand of islands in north carolina that arch out into the atlantic ocean away from the us mainland, then back toward the mainland, creating a series of sheltered islands between the outer banks and the mainland. for thousands of years these barrier islands have survived onslaughts of wind and sea. long stretches of beach, sand dunes, marshes, and maritime forests create a unique environment where wind and waves shape the topography. a large area of the outer banks is part of a national park, called the cape hatteras national seashore. it is also the nearest landmass on the us mainland to bermuda, which is about to the east-southeast.
