Scott Geib is an award-winning photographer who shoots colorful coastal scenes and also prints some in black and white, as well. He’s captured iconic shots of the Cape Hatteras Lighhouse with a full moon, stunning waterfowl including ospreys and vibrant sunrises over the sea.

Geib is in love with the coast and especially Cape Hatteras. His love is interpreted through the lens with the end result being art that allows viewers to take a piece of the coast home with them.

He calls his approach “living in the moment.” This photographer has the patience to wait and return over and over to a scene just to capture the right picture. As a self-taught artist coming to his craft later in life – late thirties - he works in an intuitive fashion. One look at the lush color, lighting and strong compositions found in his work, not to speak of his subject matter, show that he has keen instincts, and his love for his environment shines like a beacon.

Geib naturally works on location.  His work is produced as prints, on metal and other objects. It can be found in a number of Outer Banks galleries including Sandcastles and The Gaskins Gallery in Avon and Island Artworks in Ocracoke. He is available by phone, (252) 996-0286. You can visit him at www.scottgeib.etsy.com. His work is available year round.

Jimmy's Seafood Buffet

Home of the Crab Leg & Lobster Buffet for 25! years! Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet is a great stop for an all you can eat affordable dinner extravaganza. The buffet offers over 100 different items. It even serves Jumbo Alaskan crab legs and Jumbo steamed shrimp, something you will not find on any other buffet in the OBX. The buffet offers a variety of seafood and non seafood options. Try some of Jimmy’s seafood options and load your plate with blackened tuna, Louisiana crawfish, steamed scallops and mussels, fried oysters and deviled crabs. Not in the mood for seafood? Fill your plate with steak, pineapple glazed ham, fried chicken, BBQ ribs, and fettuccini Alfredo to name a few. The buffet also offers a kid section. Let your kids load their plates with chicken tenders, mac and cheese, and corn dog nuggets. Don’t forget dessert! The buffet also offers soft serve ice cream and a plethora of baked goods. 

 

It’s been 25 years since Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet opened its doors for the first time. Since that inaugural summer, the goal has remained the same: provide customers with a tasty, fresh array of seafood full of Caribbean flavor.

 

Elizabeth Dowless and her husband Jerry had always worked in restaurants in the Outer Banks, so when the opportunity to open Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet with a couple of friends arose, it was an easy yes. The Dowlesses bought out the business in 2003, excited to turn Jimmy’s into an Outer Banks staple. When Jerry passed away later that year, Dowless knew she wanted to continue pursuing their dream on her own.

 

Dowless went all in on the concept of a fresh, flavorful seafood buffet and her hard work paid off. Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet is a beloved fixture of Outer Banks dining, with customers returning year after year for the fresh fare.

 

“Customers keep in contact with me throughout the winter. I get people every day asking me when we’re opening for the season, and customers book their vacations around our opening,” Dowless says. “I absolutely love getting to see familiar faces come back to see us each year. I love seeing them lose their minds over the buffet! Their excitement is what I love most about my job.”
