Beaufort (US BFO), North Carolina, handles recreational boats, fishing craft and Intracoastal Waterway traffic on shallow Taylor Creek, where depths run to only about 3.4 metres. The deep-draught cargo work happens across Beaufort Inlet at Morehead City, a 45-foot-channel port moving roughly 2.3 million tons a year of breakbulk, bulk, RoRo and tanker cargo. No container or customs-cleared freight is handled at Beaufort itself. Forwarders therefore route commercial shipments through Morehead City, a few nautical miles away, leaving Beaufort with limited freight relevance.
