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.
