Fall on the Crystal Coast of North Carolina is a vibrant time filled with a variety of events that celebrate the region's culture, history, and natural beauty. Here are some highlights:
- North Carolina Seafood Festival (October): Held annually in Morehead City, this festival is one of the largest in the state, drawing thousands of visitors. It celebrates the area's rich fishing heritage with fresh seafood, cooking demonstrations, live music, arts and crafts, and a wide array of family-friendly activities. The festival is a fantastic way to experience the local culture and cuisine.
- Beaufort Pirate Invasion (Late September): This lively event in the historic town of Beaufort re-enacts pirate attacks from the 18th century, complete with costumed pirates, sword fights, and cannon battles. The invasion is a nod to the region's connection to famous pirates like Blackbeard, who once roamed these waters. The event includes parades, a pirate encampment, and family activities.
- Emerald Isle Fall Fishing Tournament (October): For fishing enthusiasts, this annual tournament is a must. Anglers from all over come to Emerald Isle to compete for prizes while enjoying the beautiful coastal scenery. Fall is an excellent time for fishing on the Crystal Coast, with cooler temperatures and abundant fish.
- Crystal Coast Con (November): Held in Morehead City, this pop culture convention attracts fans of comics, anime, gaming, and more. It features guest speakers, cosplay contests, and a variety of vendors. It's a fun event for both locals and visitors to express their fandoms and explore new interests.
- Ghost Walks in Beaufort (October): As one of North Carolina's oldest towns, Beaufort is rich in history—and ghost stories. During October, you can join guided ghost walks through the historic district, where storytellers share eerie tales of haunted houses, pirate lore, and other spooky happenings.
- Swansboro Mullet Festival (October): This festival in Swansboro is one of the oldest in the state, celebrating the mullet fish, a local staple. The event includes a parade, live music, arts and crafts, and plenty of mullet dishes to try. It's a fun way to experience small-town charm and coastal traditions.
Fall is a great time to visit the Crystal Coast, as the weather remains mild, the summer crowds have thinned, and these unique events provide plenty of entertainment and cultural enrichment.

Harbourview Hideaway
1-bedroom marina-front vacation rental in Fairfield Harbor, New Bern, NC
Nia - May 2023
The most serene and tranquil place I’ve stayed. It’s so peaceful and pretty! Host was so responsive, helpful and caring. Just a fantastic experience all around! Will be back again!
Angela - April 2023
OmG!!! Absolutely love this place. Nothing lacking here. The decor, the full kitchen, the extra bathroom (ya' always need an extra when I'm traveling). 🤣 The chairs on the deck... love them! To wake up and see a marina full of life... can't ask for anything more. Everyone is so friendly. I have to give a shout-out to Steve. He's the hard-working man on the dock. Sometimes on a bicycle. He went above and beyond for me. Christine Rocks!! I wish I only had more time to spend here! We'll be back👍🏻

Brad - April 2023
Highly recommend a stay here.
Kimberly - September 2022
Christine’s condo at Atlantic Beach was a beautiful place for me and my family to stay. Everything was as listed on Airbnb. The condo was very spacious and comfortable and we had everything we needed. It was also convenient to many stores, shops and restaurants and the beach. Christine was very good to work with on making reservations and communicating with whatever we needed. We will definitely want to stay there again. It was a very nice and clean place.
Kayla - September 2022
The location of the condo was ideal. We could walk to the beach within about 5 minutes and there is a dollar general, gas station, and restaurants just a few steps away. There was plenty of space for 6 adults and one baby. Having a washer and dryer in unit was a convenience I didn’t know I needed until this trip.
Jackelyn - September 2022
Nice spot right near a dollar tree which had everything we needed for a nice weekend. A quick walk to the beach and even better this place had a pool and outdoor storage! Great place for a family.
Jawaad - July 2022
The condo was absolutely beautiful, and it was sparkling clean! The amenities were also fantastic! 10/10 definitely recommend. We hope to be back soon!
Toes in the Sand
Oceanview condo, 2-Bedroom vacation rental in Emerald Isle
Aaron - April 2023
Cozy condo with nice views. Easy check-in and out with easy walk to beach.
Robert - April 2023
The condo was close walking distance to the beach. The kids loved the curly stairs and bunk beds. Comfy king size bed as well. Our first time at Emerald Isle which had nice beaches and soft sand.
Brad - October 2022
We had a great stay! We didn’t use the pack n play, but that was very thoughtful of Christine to have on hand. Definitely made use of the sand cart and toys :-) Being so close to the beach was definitely a plus! We were in town for the marathon and Christine’s place was located less than a mile from the start/finish. We’ll definitely look at booking with Christine again in the future!
Stephanie - September 2022
Great place to stay in a quiet gated community. Within walking distance of the beach and a few restaurants across the street.
Mark - July 2022
Great location and great place! Just a minute walk from the doorstep to the beautiful beach!
Nicholas - April 2022
This place was great! Very clean, nice sized bedrooms and comfortable bed! We loved using both balconies, either for morning coffee or eating dinner. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking. The area surrounding was quiet and you could hear the ocean waves each morning and evening. Would definitely recommend.
David - March 2022
My son and I stayed for three nights during his spring break. We really enjoyed ourselves. The condo is in a super location, very nice community, very clean, and the views are great. We will probably try to rent the same place again!!!
Hungerford Haven
2-bedroom, 2-bathroom Oceanview condo, vacation rental in Atlantic Beach, NC
Laken - April 2023
We took a quick trip over to Atlantic beach during the off season in April. Unfortunately, not the best weather, but that was offset by this cozy listing. The pictures are accurate, and the amenities listed were all there. I didn't pay attention when reading about the listing and didn't realize there is no elevator access to the 3rd floor (or, at least, I couldn't find it.) Not an issue since we packed light but might be something other guests staying longer / traveling with more things want to plan for. Great access to the beach- the pathway to the shore is right on the property. We did not get to use the pool, grill area, etc., but are inspired to come back in a warmer season. This was a peaceful, quiet, and comfortable space. Great location for those who want to focus on the beach itself.
Mike & Andrea/Brent & Anne - January 2023
We had a great new year weekend there. Thank you!
Skipping Stones
2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo, vacation rental in Pelletier/Swansboro Area
Anne - October 2022
The townhouse was described perfectly. It had everything you needed. As a single traveler, I felt safe staying there by myself. It was quiet and everyone I met was very nice.
Amy - September 2022
Everything was as described, we loved how close to the racetrack and several beaches this place was! My girls loved playing the board games, and I loved being able to sit back and relax! We would definitely stay here again on our next trip!
Candace - August 2022
The space was laid out well and the separate bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs were super! It was very clean with plenty of clean towels and bedding.
Jennifer - July 2022
Perfect! Very nice and enjoyed our stay. Will recommend to family and friends. Thank you!
Viktoria - July 2022
The house was really wonderful, a fully stocked kitchen, well furnished, a quiet neighborhood, and a short drive to the beach. I would definitely recommend staying here:)
T-N-T Vitamin Sea
2-bedroom 2-bathroom condo, oceanfront vacation rental in Emerald Isle, NC
Kristen - April 2023
Christine was great and view was impeccable!
Sharyl - April 2023
This was the perfect location for an extremely overworked mother and daughter. Both of us have been burning the candle at both ends. This trip was much needed medicine. The location was perfect with amazing views. In fact, I'd say this property is all about the view and easy access to the beach. We woke up every morning and enjoyed breakfast on the balcony as the sun rose. The host was super communicative, and we had everything we needed. We didn't need the heat or air, so we were able to keep the door open and listen to the sound of the ocean waves. We took day trips to the aquarium, Beaufort, Fort Macon, and more. Very convenient location.
Kimberly - October 2022
Perfect location for the Emerald Isle marathon weekend! 10-minute walk to the start/finish line. We absolutely loved the beautiful ocean view and sunrises every morning. Thank you!
Carolina - September 2022
3 Texas Sisters had a great time together. Reminiscing about our family of 9 siblings and catching up on our current lives and families. I definitely recommend Emerald Island ABNB. Thank you for making our stay memorable 💖
