The Avon cannabis scene

Avon sits in the middle of Hatteras Island, about 50 minutes south of the Bonner Bridge. It's the surf capital of the Outer Banks — home to some of the best waves on the East Coast, a tight-knit community of year-round surfers, and the kind of laid-back energy that makes you want to stay forever.

The cannabis market here is small. Our directory lists Hemp N Sea, a locally owned hemp CBD company based in Avon — its products are made locally, though it has no confirmed storefront, so confirm retail availability before visiting. The only confirmed dedicated hemp shop on Hatteras Island is Hatteras Hemp Co, down in Hatteras Village. If you’re surfing in Avon and need to re-supply, it’s the island’s one walk-in option without driving north.

If you’re staying in Avon, the nearest verified listing is Hatteras Hemp Co in Hatteras Village. For a bigger selection, KDH (50 min north) has the full strip — stock up before crossing the Bonner Bridge if you can.

Buying strategy

For first-time visitors to Avon:

  1. Stock up in KDH before crossing the bridge.This is the single best piece of advice for Hatteras Island. Prices are 15-20% higher south of the bridge. Buy your flower, edibles, and vapes in KDH, then plan on the island’s limited selection if you run short.
  2. If you didn’t stock up, options are limited.Hatteras Hemp Co in Hatteras Village is the island’s only confirmed dedicated hemp shop — mostly CBD products, Delta 9 gummies, and THCA pre-rolls. Avon’s own Hemp N Sea makes CBD locally but has no confirmed storefront. Tell them what you’re looking for and they’ll point you to what they have.
  3. Check hours before you go.Off-season hours are shorter. Call ahead if you're making the drive from Rodanthe or Hatteras village.
