Oregon Inlet Fishing Center is the premier Outer Banks fishing charter destination in Nags Head, North Carolina, boasting the largest and most modern charter boat fishing fleet on the entire eastern seaboard. Situated just 8 miles south of Whalebone Junction at the northern terminus of the Basnight Bridge, within the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, the center serves as the home dock for numerous individual charter captains and boats.

The fleet offers half-day inshore trips perfect for families and beginners, alongside extended offshore adventures targeting yellowfin tuna, bluefin tuna, mahi mahi, and billfish. A dedicated headboat option accommodates larger groups, and Make-Up Charters let smaller parties join others rather than booking an entire boat. As a full-service marina, the center offers fuel (gasoline and diesel), slip rentals, a fish cleaning station, and an on-site store stocked with tackle, bait, apparel, and snacks.

Beyond fishing, the venue’s Event Room offers breathtaking views of the sound, Bodie Lighthouse, and marina, making it a popular spot for weddings, meetings, corporate events, and private celebrations. The center maintains active, frequently updated fishing reports covering both offshore billfish action and inshore/nearshore conditions.

For anglers of any experience level looking to book an Outer Banks fishing charter — inshore, nearshore, or a serious offshore billfish and tuna trip — Oregon Inlet Fishing Center offers the region’s largest, most established fleet and full-service marina.
