Mainland Currituck County is the part of the Outer Banks most visitors never see — a quiet stretch of farmland, marsh, and small towns that sits just across the Wright Memorial Bridge from the beach. And for anyone who knows the local cannabis scene, it's also the best place to buy.
Grandy is the hub, with the strongest THCA selection and the most consistent inventory. Moyock, up near the Virginia line, has a solid wellness-focused shop. Barco keeps it simple with budget-friendly bulk deals. Together they form a small but real alternative to the higher-priced beach shops.
The biggest advantage? Price. Mainland Currituck shops don't pay beach-town rent, and they don't mark up for tourist season. The same eighth you'd pay $45 for in KDH or $55 in Corolla is often $30–35 in Grandy. If you're staying on the OBX for a week, it's worth the 15-minute drive across the bridge to stock up.

Buying strategy
For the best experience on the mainland:
Stock up before crossing the bridge. If you're driving from the mainland onto the OBX, hit Grandy Hemp Co. first. You'll save 20% and avoid the beach-town rush.
Go to Grandy for THCA flower. Grandy has the best selection and the most knowledgeable staff. Moyock is better for CBD and wellness. Barco is your budget play.
Call ahead for hours. Mainland shops often have reduced winter hours and some close on Sundays. Don't make the drive without checking.
