Abstract:

One of the most valuable beacons on the Atlantic coast stands on Bodie Island, below Nag's Head, on the waters of Oregon Inlet. Bodie Island light fills a dangerous gap between Cape Henry, Virginia and Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, and holds the distinction of standing on the first tract of beach property sold in Dare County.
