Welcome...

    

Welcome to the Beaufort Historic Site, located in the heart of charming downtown  Beaufort, where you can experience the history of North Carolina in a quaint seaport village setting. We offer lively guided tours of authentically restored homes and buildings, the mysterious Old Burying Ground, and Beaufort's charming historic district aboard a vintage English double-decker bus. You'll love discovering our coastal heritage!
