Loved this place…. lots of local things to see and do…. dingy to dining… courtesy car to shopping… beautiful weather…
On the way to Beaufort, we crossed through Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune where they do amphibious assault training. On the waterway there were warning signs to indicate not to pass if the lights were flashing due to live firing!! So… no lights were flashing and we went on… We saw this sunken shrimp boat on the way — maybe they didn’t see the flashing lights — just saying…

First night in Beaufort, we ventured into town via dinghy to see whats around. After Dinner we found this great Wine Bar / ice cream shop, had a beer and glass of wine and bought a bottle of wine to take home.
Going to town to check it out!
