The Little Kinnakeet Life-Saving/Coast Guard Station is on Hatteras Island within Cape Hatteras National Seashore. The station functioned for eighty years between 1874 and 1954; first as a component unit of the United States Life-Saving Service, then as a facility of the United States Coast Guard. Today, as part of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, the surviving structures of the Little Kinnakeet complex exist on a tract administered by the National Park Service. This historical data component of the historic resource study on the Little Kinnakeet Life-Saving and Coast Guard Station provides a history of the structures and recommendations for treatment and preservation.
