77. Roanoke Island, North Carolina - The Mystery of the Lost Colony, a Lighthouse, and Maritime Museum

Roanoke Island's first English settlers vanished without an explanation. On Roanoke Island, we stopped by the Fort Raleigh Visitor Center to read about the "Lost Colony," Native Americans, and the Freedman's Colony. In Manteo, North Carolina, we peer out of the Roanoke Marshes Lighthouse, a replica of the 1877 lighthouse. At the Roanoke Island Maritime Museum, we observe staff restore historical vessels.
