We saw a review on Trip Advisor and decided to try the sunset kayak tour. We enjoyed the trip as well as the island history and current situation we received. The sunset was AMAZING, and Jeff was a great guide. He was very pleasant and seemed genuinely interested in sharing his perspective with our small group!

Apologies for writing this a year after the tour with Jeff but just wanted to go on record that this was arguably the best part of the vacation. Jeff is knowledgable, friendly, a great tour guide and really shows you the ins and outs of the Sound and the abundant wildlife (no worries, its all safe!). Theres something to be... More

My husband and I along with our daughter and son-in-law stopped at Fatty's this past May while vacationing at Ocracoke. We took the ferry one day check out Hatteras Island. Since we are all ice cream freaks, we spotted Fatty's and stopped of course. What a treat!!! We had the greatest and freshest ice cream we had found in a... More

Jeff is very polite and he treats you like you are more than family. We have gone for ice cream there for the past two years and this year he was only open from 12-6, because it wasn't the busy time. He had offered on our last night there to stay open for us. What business does that? He also... More

This was our first experience kayaking, and Jeff did a great job! He was very knowledgeable about the history of the island, while being incredibly entertaining at the same time. We caught an amazing sunset and had a fantastic time. I wish we had time to sample the ice cream - we had to run to catch our dinner reservation.... More

My family and I found Fatty's after a little local exploration, and boy, am I glad we did! The hand-spun milkshakes are the best milkshakes I have ever tasted, and that's no exaggeration! The service was friendly, the price was more than reasonable, and they even offer kayak tours (which is next on my to-do list for a return trip).... More
