Quickly becoming an area favorite, the Wings over Water Wildlife Festival is again taking place this winter. On December 8-10, join water and wildlife enthusiasts for the continuation of this favorite Outer Banks Festival, now celebrating its 21st year. The festival takes place across a large area of eastern North Carolina and the Outer Banks, including six national wildlife refuges: Alligator River, Pea Island, Pocosin Lakes, Mattamuskeet, Mackay Island, and Currituck National Wildlife Refuges.

The festival organizes outings in small groups of canoes and kayaks. Programs are kept small so that participants can easily get instructions and ask questions. There are both outdoor and indoor events. The December portion of the festival is held later in colder weather for a better opportunity to see large flocks of migratory birds and waterfowl. Funds generated from the event are donated to Outer Bank Area National Wildlife Refuges.

Registration and program details are available at wingsoverwater.org.
