Beaufort

Beaufort is the third-oldest town in North Carolina and is situated in the “Inner Banks” region of Carteret County. Once ranked by Budget Travel Magazine as one of America’s “Coolest Small Towns,” Beaufort boasts a charming historic hub on the shores of the Atlantic and draws tourists and locals alike to enjoy its stunning scenery and incredible offering of activities. From the Shackleford Banks to the Fort Macon State Park, there is truly no shortage of things to do, see, and explore in this lively area so rich in history. While many sunseekers will surely enjoy the Beaufort area during the summer months when the sun is the hottest and the beaches are full, glampers can enjoy this dreamy locale all year round due to the humid subtropical climate of the region.
