Whittaker Creek Marina

Nestled at the very brink of Whittaker Creek and the Neuse River, Oriental is a small but distinctly coastal town home to numerous marinas, including the most hospitable and conveniently located Whittaker Creek Yacht Harbor Marina in the area. Whittaker Creek Yacht Harbor is a great location, just yards from the open water. Whether local boaters needing a permanent place to live for their vessel or passing mariners on their way through the area, this marina has much more to offer than just a picturesque setting surrounded by open water views and breathtaking sunsets every day of the week. Whittaker Creek Yacht Harbor Marina is situated at the terminus of Whittaker Point Road, on the edge of a little slip of land. The marina is situated approximately southwest of the main town center of Oriental, which is only a short drive away from the docks despite the location being a little out of the way. This topography, together with Whittaker Creek Yacht Harbor's following close proximity to the major routes that connect to New Bern, Beaufort, and Cedar Island, make the marina incredibly convenient, as it's only an hour's drive from the most popular sites in the Cape Lookout area. Whittaker Creek Yacht Harbor Marina offers around 140 transient boat slips along Whitaker Creek. Daily rates are typically $1.00 per foot, while monthly and annual rates are approximately $11.50 and $114 per foot, respectively. These rates cover access to amenities including power, restrooms, shower facilities, and a seasonal swimming pool with views of the Neuse River. Pets are welcome at the marina. Nearby, visitors can find a supermarket, motels, restaurants, and bars. Courtesy bikes are available on site, and a car rental company can pick up passengers for further exploration. The marina also offers service and repair, and the friendly staff are happy to help with supplies and tips. Essentially, Whittaker Creek Yacht Harbor Marina is a fantastic spot for folks passing through, or Oriental and Pamlico area locals who want to drop an anchor and stick around. Offering unbeatable access to the Cape Lookout and southern Outer Banks regions, Whittaker Creek Yacht Harbor Marina is effectively a breezy cruise away from any North Carolina coastal exploration.
