Thanks, you are both correct!

Making a left off the bridge takes you into Wanchese which is where all the fishing boats unload (you can buy stuff wholesale there) and there are a few restaurants but I've only been to one.

The aquarium is in Manteo and we may have to hit that up Saturday since we are kind of in a pickle with checking out of Manteo at 11am but not checking into Nags Head until 4pm.

The wild card here is that we'll have our 9 month old with us haha.
