This stallion wasn’t let off his reins for the picture but is a wild horse native to the Outer Banks. Wild horses are extremely common among these dunes and shores. Sharing the beach with these beautiful creatures is a one-of-a-kind experience!

Growing up in various states along the east coast, I've developed a love of all things local. I currently live in North Carolina and wouldn't move for anything! I love the beach, animals, and creating my own adventures. I encourage everyone to travel and never be afraid to fail.
