Fort Raleigh National Historic Site preserves the location of Roanoke Colony, the first English settlement in the present-day United States. The site was preserved for its national significance in relation to the founding of the first English settlement in North America in 1587.

The historic site is off U.S. Highway 64 on the north end of Roanoke Island, North Carolina, about 3 miles north of the town of Manteo.
