Katherine Davis Park
Description
Katherine Davis Park is an open-space city park in downtown Morehead City, right across from the 6th Street charter fishing boats. Families can stroll the waterfront, settle into the park's chairs, and watch the boats come and go from the open lawn beside the American flag display.
The park has parking and restrooms. Shops, restaurants, and the rest of the downtown waterfront are a short walk away, so it's an easy stop on a day exploring Morehead City with kids.
