Out and About in New Bern

New Bern may be best known for its museums, history centers, and walking tours, but you'll also find plenty of notable gardens, art galleries, and venues for live music and theater. Make time to explore the nearby 157,000-acre Croatan National Forest, go sailing or kayaking on the Trent and Neuse rivers, take a narrated boat tour, or rent a bicycle and tour along the waterfront. With just two main highways threading through town, most New Bern hotels are just a stone's throw from some of the best art and culture attractions, although having a car is the easiest way to get around.

Eating and Drinking

You'll find the best restaurants in New Bern clustered along highways 17 and 55, and tucked along Broad Street near the Neuse River. Seafood is one of the biggest offerings here, interspersed with American fine dining and the occasional Chinese restaurant; as a bonus, a healthy number of restaurants offer live music with your meal. It's no coincidence that you'll find some of the best New Bern hotel deals in the same area, some with charming views over the water where the Neuse and Trent rivers meet.
