I was curious if Anyone knew of a decent exotic pet store in NC. I'm vacationing in nags head and want to look around and find a decent shop. There is one small pet store here but their reptile/arachnid sections are almost nonexistent lol. I don't mind driving a bit, so if you know of anywhere I should stop lemme know. Thanks all!

When im out of my element I usually just stop at a Petco and ask their reptile associate. I've found some hidden gems that way.

I've lived in Charlotte NC as well as Wilmington NC... while I've found a few shops run by good people, I don't know of any that are real "eye candy"...

other than Fintastic in Charlotte, NC, but all they stock is fish and fish supplies all of which is extremely overpriced.

In Charlotte: Fintastic has beautiful reef displays, but they are quite pricey... Frank n Pegs was a favorite of mine but they went out of business... Last Place on Earth has a good staff and they try to offer a decent selection but they are a small store...

I haven't lived in Wilmington in a long time but Majestic Reef had a nice fish selection... There was another one on Oleander just main land side of Wrightsville beach but I can't find it in YellowPages.com and cannot remember the name of it...

I've never lived in Nag's Head so I don't know anything abotu the shops up there. But the beaches are a ton of fun. Have a blast, both of you!
