Elizabeth City, North Carolina - Harbor of Hospitality

Just west of the Outer Banks on the Pasquotank River sits a water lover's paradise, Elizabeth City, known around the world as “Harbor of Hospitality”, is famous for its pleasant waterfront docks on the Intracoastal Waterway and its residents' welcoming spirit. Elizabeth City today is alive with residential and commercial growth, dining and shopping opportunities, and a variety of recreational activities.

The revitalized waterfront, the Museum of the Albermarle, lovely historic architecture, and walking tours through six commercial and residential districts all contribute to the city's charm. Whether looking for a waterfront community to enjoy boating, fishing and an active sports life, or planning nothing more strenuous than “just relaxing, sitting back and watching the river go by”, newcomers find a wide variety of housing options.
