Queen Elizabeth Avenue Streetscape
OnlineLook down Queen Elizabeth Avenue, the walkable main street of downtown Manteo on Roanoke Island. Parked cars line the gently sloping brick-fronted block, a 20 mph speed-limit sign marks the pace of village life, and a crosswalk leads toward shops, staircases and the nearby Roanoke Marshes waterfront. It is a relaxed slice of small-town coastal Carolina.

Everything you need to know about this live stream
A Historic Outer Banks Village
Manteo is the seat of Dare County and the cultural heart of North Carolina's Outer Banks. Named for the Native American who sailed to England with the first Roanoke expeditions, the town blends colonial-revival architecture with a working waterfront character.
The Main-Street Vantage
This camera frames Queen Elizabeth Avenue, the compact commercial spine where brick-fronted storefronts, wooden staircases and shade trees line a 20 mph street. Pedestrians, parked pickups and slow local traffic give a candid read on the town's daily rhythm.
Steps From the Waterfront
A short walk downhill reaches the Roanoke Marshes Lighthouse and the boardwalk along Shallowbag Bay, where charter boats and the Elizabeth II tall ship dock. The avenue is the natural gateway between the shops and the harbor.
Gateway to Roanoke Island
Beyond the village lie Fort Raleigh, the Elizabethan Gardens and the long causeway to the barrier-island beaches. This vantage captures the unhurried character that draws travelers to the Lost Colony coast.
