Although Dare County was formed in 1870 from Currituck, Tyrrell, and Hyde
counties, its history goes back to 1585 when England made its first attempt to
settle in the New World. It is named after Virginia Dare, the first English child
born in America. Explore its natural resources, including over 100 miles of
beaches. For attractions and events, visit www.outerbanks.org.
