Exploring the Crystal Coast: Two Noteworthy summer events

I thoroughly enjoy collaborating with my clients on the Crystal Coast for various reasons. It's home to some of my preferred dining spots (Check out our article highlighting top restaurants from Swansboro to Beaufort!), offers fantastic outdoor activities like visiting the Cape Lookout Lighthouse, and fosters a wonderful community atmosphere. Even if purchasing property by the coast isn't on your agenda right now, it's never too soon to start planning your next getaway. 

The allure of the ocean beckons year-round, especially in a state like North Carolina where a beach trip is always within reach. The Crystal Coast, spanning from Swansboro to Beaufort, often referred to as the Southern Outer Banks, is just a three-hour drive from downtown Durham. As you map out your next excursion to the Crystal Coast, consider these two noteworthy events:

​With over six decades of history, this event still enchants visitors. Wander through the beauty and heritage of privately owned homes, immersing yourself in the Southern charm of the Crystal Coast. For a nominal fee, you can partake in this annual Beaufort tradition and explore unique homes, picturesque gardens, local churches, and art studios restored to capture the essence of the area.

A delightful event tailored for children! This three-day catch-and-release tournament aims to educate and engage youngsters in deep-sea fishing. Not only does this annual tournament support children's charities, but it also draws over a hundred participants each year and continues to grow.
