Description

Oriental. (n) Village on the shores of the Neuse River and Pamlico Sound, home to 875 people, no stoplights and a lot of boats.

By some counts, 2700 boats are docked in and around Oriental at any one time, which works out to more than three boats per resident. Most of them are sailboats, which, along with the steady breezes nearby makes Oriental the Sailing Capital of NC.

And at Mile Marker 182 of the Intracoastal Waterway, Oriental is a welcoming harbor for cruisers whether they are heading north or south on the ICW or making a stop on a circumnavigation. More than a few of Oriental’s current residents first came to town by sea...and decided to stay a while.
