The picture above is where the Trent and Neuse
Rivers converge. New Bern Is encircled by
rivers
and deep
navigable
creeks. Combine this with a close proximity to the Pamlico
Sound and the intercoastal waterway, and the reasons are apparent why sailors and power boaters
from around the country are making New Bern their final destination. Boaters,
sailors, and fisherman from as far away as California are moving to the New Bern
area and
Pamlico County to enjoy the natural beauty and serenity of the Neuse River
and it's tributaries.

The Neuse River is the
widest river on the East coast and a
haven for sailing, fishing, and boating. With 2 big rivers, a mild climate, and
reasonable property taxes it's no wonder that we are seeing retiree's moving to
New Bern from as far away as Florida and California. Waterfront communities on the Neuse in
and around New Bern, N.C. include Riverside, historic downtown New Bern, Bridgeton, James City, Old Cherry Point Road, Riverbluff, Neuse Harbor, Carolina Pines, and
the Harlow area. Neuse River waterfront communities in Pamlico County include Minnesot Beach and Oriental. For more info on the

The Trent River,
while not as majestic as the Neuse, is better protected from
storms and high winds. With deep water near much of the shore
line it makes a better choice for those wanting to dock a boat in their back
yard. The calmer waters make recreational boating a favorite
pastime. Most any sunny day will bring out the water skiers,
boogie boarders, jet skiers and fisherman.
Waterfront communities in
the New Bern N.C. area on the
Trent River include Riverbend, Trent Woods, Old Towne,
Madame Moore Lane, and the Brices Creek area.

New Bern N.C. has other
bodies of water that have deep water and make for great
waterfront properties. Below are mentioned a few. |
|
The Riverbend Canal
was cut from the Trent River to the Town of Riverbend. The
canal is about 1 mile long and 5 to 6 feet deep. Near the
end of the canal is the newly built Riverbend Marina and
Restaurant.
Homes
on the Riverbend Canal are relatively inexpensive compared
to most waterfront properties in the area. This area can be
a good choice for those that want to stay in the $300,000
price range. |
