The Great Outdoors

Visit Fort Macon State Park next time you book an RV rental in Morehead City. Just off the mainland on Bogue Banks near Atlantic Beach, some might call Fort Macon State Park a place of many personalities. All at once, the park is a restored Civil War-era fort, a pristine shoreline for swimming, coastal fishing, and beachcombing, and a coastal education center. You’ll get lost in the endless opportunities for exploration; fields of sand dunes, estuaries, and salt marshes all beckon you to come and relax a while. There are multiple trails of varying length throughout the island, all providing stellar views of the surrounding seascape.

When spending time outdoors, most people don’t automatically choose a cemetery as their destination, but a trip to the Old Burying Ground might just change your mind about cemeteries. This historic burial ground, established in 1724, is the town’s oldest cemetery. Venture through graves marked by wood, brick, stone, and shell slabs. Interesting yet eerie, visitors can embark on a self-guided tour through the cemetery. Print off a tour map from the burial ground’s website, or download an app on your smartphone that provides a free audio tour.

Seafood lovers, take heart! This next one’s for you. For over three decades, Morehead City has been hosting an annual seafood festival. Originating in 1987, the festival aims to highlight the importance of the seafood industry in North Carolina, educate the public about the positive social and economic impact of seafood, and of course, provide some wonderful seafood for sampling. Come out for a weekend of live music, shopping, family fun, local sponsors, and of course, a healthy dose of fresh seafood. Exact festival dates vary, so be sure to visit their website for details, and swing on by when you book a motorhome rental in Morehead City.

Browse through the museum’s library, which has more than 10,000 books plus a photo file documenting the history of Carteret County.

Just outside Morehead City in Beaufort is the North Carolina Maritime Museum. This waterside museum has exhibits ranging all the way from pirates to the seafood industry and marine life to boating.
