It is southwest of the famous Cape Hatteras and the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse in Buxton. The inlet that the ferries use is Hatteras Inlet. The residents of Hatteras are governed by the Dare County Board of Commissioners. Hatteras is part of District 4, along with Avon, Buxton, Frisco, Rodanthe, Waves and Salvo. ==Attractions and recreation== Hatteras is best known as a fishing and vacation destination. This community offers visitors ample opportunities for recreation, sightseeing, and remote relaxation especially on its beautiful beaches. Watersports are plentiful on both the ocean-side and the sound-side of the village. Proximity to the convergence of the Labrador Current and the Gulf Stream result in the largest surf available on the East Coast. On the protected Pamlico Sound side of the island watersports such as windsurfing, kayaking, kiteboarding, and swimming are all readily available and accessible. Fishing is a major source of recreation as well as revenue in Hatteras. In shore charters are available to fish in the Pamlico Sound. Deep sea charters are also available at Hatteras Harbor Marina and Oden's Dock. Deep sea trips take anglers to the warm waters of the Gulf Stream to fish for blue and white marlin, tuna, wahoo and mahi mahi. It takes approximately one and a half to two hours to reach the Gulf Stream from Hatteras Inlet. Pamlico Sound, which separates Hatteras and Ocracoke Islands, is one of the largest estuarine systems in the world and offers an almost limitless variety of fishing opportunities. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hatteras, North Carolina」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
