EXPLORE ATLANTIC BEACH, NC
Atlantic Beach, NC, is known not only for its beaches and sparkling water, but also for its rich history and culture. Atlantic Beach is home to Fort Macon, a popular state park and Civil War Fort, which draws thousands of visitors each year and Queen Anne’s Revenge, the famous pirate flag ship of Blackbeard. Visitors can tour the old fort, take hikes, go fishing, swimming or lounge on the nearby beach and more.
If you love to fish, try the off-shore fishing challenge aboard the Captain Stacy. The Captain Stacy Fishing Center offers half and full-day fishing tours.
