Pilot Town Suite
Welcome to the Pilot Town Suite. Right across from the ferry port is the road Pilot Town Circle, a reference to the island’s earliest settlement. In 1715, the North Carolina colonial government passed an act that designated the island as an official port, authorizing it to be settled by seafaring pilots who could service ship traffic and guide ships to safely navigate the Ocracoke Inlet and surrounding channels. Centuries later, we pay homage to a bygone era of nautical adventure and reflect on the humble beginnings of the village we now call home.
