Visit Elizabeth City

Get ready to hear the crack of the bat, cast a line, and jump for a dunk! Elizabeth City is ready to welcome sports teams and sports lovers with multiple sports venues and waterfront access that can accommodate a variety of events. From basketball to baseball and fishing to paddling, we are ready to assist.

Located mid-way down the East Coast with a mild climate, our quaint, coastal town is a great place to visit any time of the year. With our unique location in northeastern North Carolina, we are a short scenic drive to the beaches of the Outer Banks and the nearby big cities of Hampton Roads. We’re only an hour from the Norfolk International Airport, so it’s easy to enjoy your stay in our waterfront community, experience a nice meal at a local restaurant, and relax in our small town. With a variety of traditional lodging, plus seven B&Bs and many unique Airbnb options, Elizabeth City is happily poised and ready to welcome your athletes and fans!
