Duck guide

Whichever species you are seeking - the live waterfowl or the carved, weathered decoys - they both abound in this soundside village so aptly named Duck. Located on the north end of the Banks, Duck remained undeveloped until the 1970's. Commercial development has been limited along Highway 12 and the community has considerable ''old beach'' charm. Named for the sheer numbers of waterfowl that once flocked here during migratory seasons, Duck has experienced exponential growth over the past ten years. Duck is a thriving year-round town as well as vacation destination. Characterized by quaint boutiques, fine dining, and a variety of water sports both on the sound and in the ocean, Duck is rapidly becoming one of the most popular beach destinations in the country. At the north end of the town, the Army Research Pier is a fascinating attraction worth an afternoon tour.

The facility was created to study the dynamic processes of a barrier islands. Over the years, a wealth of data gathered during hurricanes and Nor'easters have helped planners and builders better understand the impact of wind, water, and waves on coastal construction.

    Cliche but still true: If it walks, quacks, and looks like duck--you can bet it's name is Daffy. So stop calling it by another name.
