Outer Banks and the Mid Atlantic States represents an area made up of Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Deleware, and New Jersey all bordering the Atlantic Ocean. The narrow strand of barrier islands known as North Carolina's Outer Banks strings for more than 90 miles along the coast from Virginia's border south through Ocracoke and Portsmouth Islands. Bordered by bodies of brackish water on the west and by the Atlantic Ocean on the east, these fragile islands are accessible by plane, boat, or by driving over one of several bridges that provide links to the mainland. At the narrowest points, the islands are less than a half- mile wide, and in some areas, they extend out more than 20 miles east of the North Carolina mainland. The northern part of the Outer Banks is technically part of the North American mainland; it is part of a continuous sand ridge extending well into the city of Virginia Beach, Virginia and joining the mainland there. However, for all practical purposes, it is a barrier island; there is no road access from Virginia through the ridge. Therefore being a barrier island the island is constantly shifting south.
