OBX or South-Searching for local advice

[DisplacedFloridian]

Need to get away from work for 1-2 weeks , surf & veg
Must go before summer crowds, sometime next week to june 15
Want to rent house at oceanfront (clean / simple is fine)
I will be taking the wife too. So I have to do a few stupid tourist things, ideas?
Sooooo
I would like to know what area would be the best area for what we are looking for.
Looking for area pretty laid back & quiet, not looking to party all out, good people
Has decent surfable breaks – out of the way-away from crowds
Dont need specific breaks, just point me in right direction
Have big 4x4, gas card and do not mind searching out breaks on my own & locals are welcome
Recently got back into surfing after 20 years, no hardcore charging here

outerbanks for sure. you can find the bars and be all alone in the same day. and your more likely to find surf.

obx is the way to go. from what i've heard, the spring season has been kind to the outer banks.

atlantic beach is nice. you get decent surf and you have historical beaufort, nc for the tourist in you. you can surf atlantic beach, shackleford banks, or cape lookout "core banks"
