LOST

Nintendo Switch with neon Joy-Cons and case

I lost my Nintendo Switch yesterday around 3pm in the Outer Banks. It was in a black zip-up case with a blue dolphin sticker on the front. The Switch itself has neon blue and neon red Joy-Cons, and the screen has a small crack in the top-right corner. I think I left it in the parking lot near Bodie Island Lighthouse after grabbing a snack; it might have slid under a bench by a trash can. This item is sentimental to me—it's a gift from my grandfather—and I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back if found.

Blue plush dragon with orange wings, 8 inches

I lost my blue plush dragon, about 8 inches tall, yesterday around 3pm. It’s a soft blue velour dragon with tiny orange felt wings and a white heart stitched on its chest; there’s a tiny snag on the tail and a small stain near the wing seam. I had it with me near the Nags Head Fishing Pier parking lot by the Outer Banks boardwalk when we were headed back toward the souvenir shops. It’s categorized under Children’s Toys & Games and means a lot to us—my kid's grandmother gave it to them, so it has sentimental value. If anyone found it, drop me a note at [email protected]; I’d be really grateful to get it back.

Gold bracelet with heart charm and turquoise beads

I lost my gold-tone bracelet yesterday around 4:15pm. It’s a 7-inch stretch bracelet with a small heart charm and turquoise beads, a bit tarnished from wear, and one bead has a tiny crack that’s easy to notice. The heart charm is engraved on the back with the initials 'L.M.' and there’s a tiny anchor charm right next to the clasp. It was a gift from my grandmother and means a lot to me, so I’m really hoping to find it. I last had it near Jennette’s Pier parking lot in Nags Head, walking along the dune line by the lifeguard stand, and I must have dropped it somewhere in that area.

Lost blue contact lens case with initials AJ

I lost my blue plastic contact lens case this afternoon around 3:15 pm behind the Outer Banks Brewing Station in Kill Devil Hills. It’s a small rectangular case with a white lid, and inside you’ll find two lenses and a half-full travel solution bottle. The lid is engraved with my initials AJ, and there’s a tiny chip on the corner from a drop earlier today. It’s got sentimental value because those lenses are prescription, and I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Blue surf fishing rod with orange reel

I lost my blue seven-foot surf fishing rod yesterday around 3pm near the Jennette's Pier parking lot in Nags Head, Outer Banks. It’s a blue fiberglass rod with a worn cork handle and an orange reel. There’s a small shark sticker about a foot above the grip, and a strip of yellow electrical tape near the butt for grip. It has sentimental value—my dad gave it to me and I’ve used it on countless weekend trips. If anyone found it, please drop a note; I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Silver sea-wave bracelet with shell charm

I found a silver-tone bracelet (Miscellaneous Jewellery) on the Outer Banks boardwalk this afternoon around 3:15 pm, near Jennette's Pier in Nags Head. It's a 7-inch wave-pattern bracelet with a tiny seashell charm and a turquoise bead, and the back of the clasp is engraved with the initials 'AK'. The piece is in decent condition, a little beach-worn but still shiny, with the shell charm showing a gentle patina. If the owner sees this, I’d love to return it; I know it probably has sentimental value.

Navy knit beanie with orange pom-pom found

I found a navy knit beanie with an orange pom-pom this afternoon. It's an adult-sized beanie, soft acrylic, with a ribbed cuff and a small snag along the left edge. I picked it up in the parking lot behind the Outer Banks Brewing Station on Colington Road in Kill Devil Hills around 2:15 pm. There’s a faint coffee stain on the inside and a tiny blue thread stitched into the pom-pom that makes it easy to spot. If this is yours, send a message here and we can sort it out.

Found calico cat with pink collar near Duck Town Park

I found a small calico cat this afternoon around 3:15pm wandering near the Duck Town Park playground in Duck, Outer Banks. It has a pink collar with a tiny blue bell and white paws with an orange patch over its right eye. The cat looked a little nervous at first, but it let me pet it after I offered tuna from a can. It seems healthy and responsive, purring when I spoke softly. If someone is missing a cat that matches this description, please reach out—I’d love to reunite them. I can bring it to a local vet or shelter if needed.

Kindle Paperwhite with neon yellow case found

I found a Kindle Paperwhite this afternoon around 3:45 pm, tucked behind a bench near the Whalehead Club along Lighthouse Drive in Corolla, Outer Banks. It’s in a bright neon yellow silicone case with a tiny sea turtle sticker on the back. The screen shows a few minor scratches on the bezel, but it powers up fine and the docking cable is still attached. Inside the device, there’s a bookmark peeking out with a note that reads 'NC road trip memories'—clearly a travel buddy. If you recognize it, message me here with the last book you were reading so I can verify and get it back to you.

Brown Bellroy wallet found near Wright Brothers Memorial

I found a brown Bellroy slim wallet this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the Wright Brothers National Memorial parking lot in Kitty Hawk. It's in decent condition, with a few scuffs along the edges and a tiny dent on the bottom-right corner. The inner lining has a small orange fox embroidery, and there’s a brass compass charm attached to a tiny keyring tucked in the coin pocket. Inside, I spotted an ID card with the name Daniel Park, a couple of loyalty cards, and a crumpled beach-reason receipt. It clearly seems well-used and personal—I’d like to see it back with its owner if possible.
