Baydream Believer sits on a lagoon off Currituck Sound in a newer soundside neighborhood of Corolla. Historic Corolla Park, with the restored 1920s Whalehead house, soundside kayak and canoe rentals, crabbing and a public boat ramp, and the red-brick Currituck Beach Lighthouse are a short drive away. The Corolla wild horses roam the 4WD beach north of town and can be seen on guided tours departing from Corolla or by 4WD vehicle. Duck Town Park`s soundside boardwalk, shops and restaurants are to the south. Groceries: Food Lion in Monteray Plaza and Harris Teeter at the Currituck Club entrance. Timbuck II shopping village is on Ocean Trail.

A car is recommended. A 4WD vehicle is needed to drive the beach north of Corolla where the wild horses roam; guided tours from Corolla are the alternative. Norfolk International Airport (ORF) in Norfolk, Virginia, is the nearest major commercial airport.
