Belhaven is located on the north shore of Pungo river. One can go, by water, eight miles southeast to Pamlico Sound. From there the outer banks of North Carolina lay fifteen miles east. In a normal year Pungo River and its tributaries, and Pamlico Sound and its tributaries are a sports fisherman's paradise. Then the Atlantic Ocean out of Ocracoke and Oregan Inlets provide a marvelous deep-sea fishing experience.

There is also an abundance of wildlife in the area including white tail deer, black bear, rabbits, squirrels, quail, swan and most all varieties of ducks and geese.

The purpose of this site is to inform our citizens of the  various services we provide and how to obtain them, and provide others who might be interested in coastal Carolina, a path to the good life.
