Rodanthe came under the spotlight ever since the film “Nights in Rodanthe”, which starred Richard Gere and Diane Lane, was released in 2008. The history of the coastal village, however, goes back to the 1800s, back when it was called Chicamacomico, by Algonquin Native Americans. This moment of its history has been immortalized by the Chicamacomico Lifesaving Station, which is considered the birthplace of the U.S. Coast Guard. Water and wildlife activities are aplenty here, with birdwatching, kayaking, kiteboarding, and surfing being only a few of the activities that you can try here. So book one of the best Airbnb vacation rentals in Rodanthe, North Carolina, so you are well rested before you embark on your adventure in this village.
