When you make the Morehead City your port of call, you will have discovered the jewel of the Crystal Coast. The downtown waterfront is within a short walk of more than 20 restaurants. Beaches, nature, nine area golf courses, and history redefine the good life. The waterfront is known and loved for its hospitality, fishing, scuba diving, and, of course, its seafood. The best marina locations were selected here nearly a century ago. The Morehead City Yacht Basin has undergone a $4.5 million dollar renovation to once again be the premier yachting facility on the Crystal Coast, paying tribute to its legendary history as host to Ernest Hemingway, legions of other renowned sportsmen, and the original home of the Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament. From the sands of Atlantic Beach and Emerald Isle to Beaufort, Morehead City, and the Down East area, this unspoiled stretch of the Southern Outer Banks coast is rich with beauty, heritage, and activities to experience and explore.
