Sandbar

At low tide on a warm day, Beaufort's sandbar is the place to drink and be drunk. It's only about a mile south of the Henry C Chambers Waterfront Park and people show up in all manner of watercraft, including boats, kayaks and paddleboards. They bring coolers with enough booze to last long after the tide goes out, and on some days there are even concerts performed on a floating stage.
