The Coastal Region of North Carolina is a great place to vacation, with both outdoor fun and history mixed in to three sections. The southern section is home to historic Wilmington, the State's largest port, as well as Cape Fear which offers enjoyment for the beachgoers, golfers, history buffs, and shoppers. In the central section of the region, the Crystal Coast offers fun and activities in all of the seasons.
History runs rich in the central section in towns such as New Bern.
The northern section of the Coastal Region is also rich in history and fun, home to Kitty Hawk and the Cape Hatteras National Seashore. The Coastal Plain of North Carolina is one of the most historic regions of the country, essentially beginning the history of English-speaking peoples in America.
