WELCOMEChicamacomico Life-Saving Station!
With its two stations and five outbuildings, Chicamacomico
(pronounced chik a ma COM i co) is the most complete site of
remaining life-saving stations in North Carolina and one of the
nation’s most complete sites. This site is located on Hatteras
Island in the village of Rodanthe on the Outer Banks of North
Carolina.
Our purpose is to restore,
preserve, protect, educate and interpret the rich history of
these valiant men and their dedication to the U.S. Life-Saving
Service, as well as interpreting the history of the buildings
and artifacts. We are open to the public from mid-April through
November, and provide our visitors with tours, programs,
reenactments and special events.
Memberships
are available, and are just one way you can help
preserve our nation’s history! ->Become A

"What is better than an
unexpected treasure?
The Chicamacomico Life-Saving Station
Historic Site & Museum in Rodanthe, the northernmost
village on Hatteras Island, could be the most
overlooked attraction on the Outer Banks. For years
I have driven past...Now that I have visited...I
can't wait to return."Jenny Scarborough, The Island Breeze, Hatteras, NC
