Ocracoke Village is a small town located on Ocracoke Island, which is part of the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The island has a rich history that dates back to the early colonial era. The first known residents of the island were Native Americans, who fished and hunted on the island for thousands of years.

In the 16th century, European explorers, including Spanish and English sailors, began to visit the Outer Banks. The first recorded European visit to Ocracoke Island was by the Spanish explorer, Lucas Vazquez de Ayllon, in 1526. The island was later visited by English explorers, including Sir Walter Raleigh and his colonists, who landed on nearby Roanoke Island in 1585.
