Good Words for Oriental Marina, Oriental, NC, Neuse River, AICW Statute Mile 181
Oriental is home to two SALTY SOUTHEAST CRUISERS’ NET SPONSORS, Oriental Marina and Nautical Wheelers! Oriental Marina is on the eastern banks of inner Oriental Harbor.
7-2-17 . Last time here 7 1/2 years ago and just as great then as now!. Left Belhaven for Oriental. Tom and Joe helped us tie up. Tom owner. Pole docks with small finger slips. Tiki bar and Toucan grill still open and food great. Wifi strong as is Verizon. Great dog spots right off back of boat. Showers great- even provide towels. Very sheltered marina and Joe-dock hand- the best. Don’t know yet re the w/d or cable. Small grocery less than a mile away- nice for bicycle ride. Still one of our very favorites! Ice cream across is a must stop!!

I agree 100%!!!!
7/18/17 – We can confirm everything Charles said. I would add that they have no pump out facility at Oriental Marina, the free Oriental Town pump out was not functional when we visited and reportedly had recurring issues. We were able to slip over to on Whitaker creek into Deaton’s travel lift slip and self pump out for a nominal $5 charge.. very boater friendly community.
