Pea Island

Hurricane Irene reopened the New Inlet, making Pea Island separate again, although it has since reconnected with Hatteras.

Pea Island was home to the Pea Island Life-Saving Station, the first U.S. Coast Guard life-saving station to have an all African-American crew.

Since 1937, it has also been home to the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge.
