Morehead City is a small coastal community overlooking Bogue Sound and Calico Bay. Historically a port city, Morehead City has become a major destination for ecotourism in recent years; Scuba diving in particular is quite popular, with scores of shipwrecks offshore -- including a German submarine sunk during World War II.
The commercial district along Arendell Street is loaded with popular hangouts, from the seafood restaurants and taverns on the waterfront to the Carteret Community Theatre and Sweet Beans Coffee farther inland. Living in Jacksonville puts you just minutes away from New Bern and Jacksonville, as well as the nearby Marine Corps Air Stations.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
