Barden Inlet
Appearance
Barden Inlet is the lowest of the Outer Banks water inlets. Located just northwest of Cape Lookout in the U.S. state of North Carolina, the inlet connects Onslow Bay of the Atlantic Ocean with Core Sound. It separates the Shackleford Banks from the Core Banks.
Barden Inlet was opened by a hurricane in 1933, separating the Shackleford Banks from South Core Banks.[1]
