Oriental, N.C.

These two small North Carolina towns are located on the north shore at the mouth of the Neuse River in the middle and coastal region of North Carolina. The N.C. Ferry System operates a ferry from Minesott across the river to Cherry Branch, N.C. and I caught the arrival and departure of this ferry which is included in this video.

Thanks for your matter-of-fact video. I need to get down that way and do some sailing on the Neuse.

What you originally identified as Minnesott Beach was actually Janeiro, and you didn’t show anything of the actual area known as Minnesott Beach that starts at the ferry and goes up along the river. That’s the coolest community in the whole area.

Okay I'll have to edit the title then plus go re visit sometime. Thanks for watching!

@@LancesLens Well in fairness the Ferry is at Minnesott Beach though you missed the waterfront community that starts there going north along the river. It's definitely worth checking out as it's very unique and sits high above the river which is also unique in Pamlico county. Most of the other areas like Oriental are right at water level and flood all the time. Also the sign that says Ahoy There is across from the entrance to Camp Sea Gull the largest summer resident camp for boys in the US, and a master sailing camp. Just an incredible operation.
