How far back can we trace the history of the section
of Bogue Banks we know as Pine Knoll Shores? We have evidence that native
Americans camped and fished here, but the earliest recorded history of a
westerner visiting may be when the explorer Giovanni da Verrazano arrived in
the 16th century.
Welcome to the history blog for the Town of Pine Knoll Shores, NC. Browse our site and discover the people, places and events that create the rich heritage of this unique coastal community. Come back often to see what's been added.

From Paris to Bogue Banks
Part II: Les Années Folles
Part II of Alice Green Hoffman in
France begins after World War I and ends with the outbreak of World War II in
Europe. The world had changed dramatically since our Alice was last in France,
but she had already grown accustomed to change, living as she did in such very
different places—New York City, Bogue Banks and Paris.
