 Today,
Kitty Hawk, North Carolina provides some of the
best beach recreation and resorts on the North
Carolina coast, though it will always be known as
the birthplace of aviation. The actual 1903 flight
by the Wright brothers took place 4 miles south of
Kitty Hawk in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina.
However, the brothers stayed in Kitty Hawk and their
historic telegram was sent from Kitty Hawk. Kitty
Hawk is believed to be the closest English
pronunciation to a native Indian word,
Chickahauk, meaning "goose hunting grounds." The
area has rich resources for hunting and fishing.
Kitty Hawk, North Carolina was visited by a young
Robert Frost in 1894, who would later write his
moving "Kitty Hawk", a report of the fate of Aaron
Burr's daughter, Theodosia. For helpful links, visit
