Nestled in the confluent waters of the White Oak River and the Intracoastal Waterway, Swansboro offers visitors an unhurried journey through time. It’s a place where graceful seagulls lazily float through blue sun-kissed skies and gently lapping waves caress sandy shores as they’ve done since time began. It’s a living part of American’s history with quaint little boutiques, relaxing waterside cafes, and interesting architecture. And, it’s a playground that abounds in boating, fishing, kayaking, golf, amusements, arts, and some of the finest unspoiled beaches in the county.
