Welcome to VisitNC.com, the official travel and tourism web site for the State of North Carolina. On this site, you’ll find everything you need to plan your next visit to our state, whether for a day trip, a weekend getaway, or a family vacation.

Summer is winding down in NC, and in a matter of days we’ll be unveiling six weeks of North Carolina Dreams In Color. Later this month, our fall reporters will start giving you tips on the best places to find fish and foliage, and we’ve also got a treasure chest of great autumn activities and events in North Carolina, from haunts and harvests to wine and scenic drives. We’ll also be giving away a series of great NC adventures, so be sure and check back often for the latest cool ideas and giveaways.

In the meantime, enjoy the rest of your summer by celebrating the Blue Ridge Parkway’s 75th Anniversary by exploring the cool things to do along its mileposts. Or go fishing in the plentiful waters of the Brunswick Islands. Or, plan on having the “time of your life” at Lake Lure’s Dirty Dancing Festival.

Whether you’re looking for adventure or relaxation, mountains or beaches, cities or wilderness, you’ll find it in North Carolina!
