Crystal Coast vacationers can venture off the coast where the big catches are waiting with a fishing trip that’s commandeered by the Carolina Princess. Launching out of Downtown Morehead City, and easy to reach for veritably anyone staying in Atlantic Beach or Morehead City, visitors can step off the docks and step into exceptional fishing conditions with ease, and create some stellar on-the-water memories to go along with a big fish story or two.

The vessel is a 95’ foot long aluminum boat, which is hard to miss along the busy Morehead City docks for its sheer size alone. The “Carolina Princess” was designed for comfort, and features men and women’s restrooms, extra wide decks, and a courteous crew that’s happy to lend a hand.

There’s a range of fishing trips available for anglers, including half day, full day, 18-hour, and 24-hour bottom fishing expeditions, which are sure to appeal to mariners of all dedication and experience levels. With an on-board galley for freshly prepared meals, and all the bait anglers will need to reel in catch after catch, the “Carolina Princess” is outfitted with everything a fisherman could ask for.

Always fun for new and experienced anglers alike, the Carolina Princess is a fine option for vacationers who want to discover the famed Crystal Coast fishing scene.

Sandy Run Park

Sandy Run Park leads its visitors through the heart of Kitty Hawk Woods Coastal Preserve, one of the largest maritime forests remaining in North Carolina. Completed in two phases, the park now encompasses 1600 acres of marshland, waterways and maritime forest. The park features a wooden boardwalk, two gazebos, a fishing and many more amenities for the enjoyment of the area's natural beauty and wildlife. On a stroll through the park you will likely run into many of the area's indigenous creatures and plants.Just after entering the park, and next to the ample parking area you’ll find a covered picnic pavilion, a putting green, cookout grills and a basketball half court. Below the pavilion is a canoe and kayak access deck. Beyond this recreation and picnic area is a half-mile loop, mostly boardwalk, that will take you on a scenic and educational tour of a large section of the Preserve, where wildlife and plants are identified by plaques placed along the route. At the first gazebo stop is another kayak and canoe access where you’re sure to see many yellow-bellied slider turtles swimming all around and an Osprey family nesting above. Other creatures you may get a glimpse of include deer, otter, egrets, raccoons and even a nutria. Also along the boardwalk you’ll find an observation deck and a pier for fishing (license required). The fishing pond is stocked with several varieties of fish, including brim and bass..Sandy Run Park is open from sunrise to sunset. Although the cost is free, the natural serenity and beauty it offers is priceless.
