Morehead City is known both as a stunning resort community as well as a major deep-water port city. Carteret County boasts an educational system that is ranked one of the best in the state on EOG and SAT scores. Its mild climate and scenic beauty – including a total of over 80 miles of spectacular sandy beaches make it an amazing place to live, work, and play. Popular outdoor activities include surfing, kayaking, canoeing, nature trails, bicycling, camping, golfing and horseback riding. Deep-sea and pier fishing are among the best in the country. Carteret County is a premier scuba dive location due to the incredible variety of sea life and shipwrecks so close to the coast. It is fondly referred to as the “Graveyard of the Atlantic”.
