Town History
Established in 1709, Beaufort, N.C., is a quaint coastal town located on Beaufort Inlet, a channel leading south to the Atlantic Ocean. The third oldest town in the state and seat of Carteret County, Beaufort has a residential population of about 4,000 with a high influx of visitor traffic during the warmer months.
Beaufort was first known as Fishtown because the fishing industry was and has been an important part of the county’s history. Beaufort was later named for Henry Somerset, Duke of Beaufort.
Originally a fishing village and port of safety dating from the late 1600s, Beaufort has been visited by patriots, privateers, merchants, and skilled craftsmen who built Bahamian and West Indian-style homes and public buildings. Approximately 150 of the restored historic homes bear plaques noting names of the Town’s earliest known owners and dates of original construction.
The early economy of Beaufort was on the use of natural resources in the area. Hence, fishing, whaling, the production of lumber and naval stores, shipbuilding, and farming were the chief economic activities. Though Beaufort had the safest and most navigable harbor of any of the ports of North Carolina, extensive commercial activities failed to develop, owing to the fact that the town was almost completely isolated from the interior. Now, Beaufort’s economy depends heavily on tourism.
The Plan of Beaufort Towne, laid out in 1713, survives in a 12-block area, which today is on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Rev. Curtis Oden presented Feb. 8, 2016, during a regular meeting of the Board of Commissioners information about African American History in Beaufort as part of the Inspirational Moment.

Oh my! I was just there this past week on my first vacation to NC I Loved it and hope to go back. Beautiful place

[@goodguy401960]

So cool!

[@jdhjimbo]

Beaufort is indeed a beautiful small historic town, and I have enjoyed a couple visits there, along with Cape Hatteras & the Outer Banks. Enjoyed the southern musical accompaniment as well. Too bad Morehead City and those refineries are, closeby, as they kind of mar the coast there. I still prefer the SC Beaufort, but this is a very nice place, full of history. Well done!

[@jamieturnage4574]

i have fished all over them waters

[@jdhjimbo]

I did see a show about a guy who caught a massive fish (perhaps, blue marlin) off Cape Hatteras, and it needed two strong guys to reel it in. Great place to fish, even if "catching" is not always great. Just wouldn't want to be on the Outer Banks when a hurricane or severe storm kicks up, as you feel like you are on a deserted island, and hard to see across Pamlico Sound, to any land.
