Fort Macon State Park in Atlantic Beach includes a historic pre–Civil War fort featuring preserved grounds, the beach, and walking trails. It’s a wonderful spot to visit and experience a bit of local history during your stay.
Very close to the venue, and fun for people of all ages. The aquarium showcases a wide variety of marine life, including local coastal species and interactive exhibits.
If you're looking for a fun to enjoy the coast, we highly recommend booking a trip with Capt. Stacy Fishing Center! They offer both half-day and full-day fishing charters, perfect for all experience levels and a great way to experience the local waters.
While you’re in town, be sure to check out Beaufort’s historic downtown. Walk along the waterfront streets lined with centuries-old homes, unique shops, and local restaurants. As well as learning about Beaufort’s pirate legends and maritime history.
Add a little adventure to your stay with a trip to Cape Lookout National Seashore. The boat ride from Beaufort takes you by Shackleford Banks, where wild horses roam freely. You’ll also get to stop at Harkers Island to learn more about the history of the island.
