Since 1991, Tortugas’ Lie has been part of the fabric of the Outer Banks. What began as a small, family-run spot on the Beach Road in Nags Head has grown into a local legend; a place where great food, great people, and unforgettable memories come together.
Still family-owned and operated to this day, Tortugas' Lie is known for its laid-back island vibe, fresh seafood, cold drinks, and friendly service. Whether you’re stopping in after a long day on the beach, coming out for live music, or gathering with friends for a sunset dinner, our goal is always the same: to make you feel at home.
