Whalehead Club

The Whalehead Club is a large, 21,000 sq. ft. mansion in Corolla, originally built for the wealthy Knights family and their legendary Outer Banks hunting trips. Check out our blog to learn more about the history of the Whalehead Club.

Situated on 39 acres of land overlooking the Currituck Sound, Historic Corolla Park and Whalehead is open to the public every weekday, 9 am - 4 pm, and is an affordable day trip option for the whole family (even the most expensive tickets are only $7 each).

If you're looking for something a bit more spine-tingling, Whalehead also offers Legends, Lore and Ghost Tours on Wednesdays at 7 pm during the summer. at $15 per ticket.

If you're visiting during the winter, don't worry, you haven't been forgotten either: Whalehead also offers a Candlelight Christmas Tour from late November until Christmas Day, though these tickets are limited and run out quickly, so be sure to reserve your spot early (tickets are $20 each).

But the house is not the only thing to enjoy in Corolla Park. Make sure to bring along your picnic basket, kayak, kite, and/or hiking boots and enjoy a full day out in nature!
