About Frisco
Frisco sits on the southern end of Hatteras Island, offering exposed beach break with serious potential. The sandbars here can produce heavy, hollow waves, especially during hurricane season. It's quieter and more raw than the touristy northern Outer Banks. When big swell hits, Frisco rewards those willing to make the drive.
