The Spirit of Christmas
The whole town of Oriental celebrates holiday season beginning with a parade

refreshments.
New Year's Eve
The Dragon Run
Joe Cox and friends saw the dragon first in the sixties. The dragon makes
it's yearly appearance on New Year's. He/she comes out just after
dark, lumbering down Hodges street as children (of all ages) bang pots to
drive off evil spirits and bring in the new year. A second running of the
dragon occurs closer to midnight. Come touch the dragon for luck as it makes
its annual appearance in the town.

Fishing
The large shrimp boats in the harbor are your first clue: the fishing is
good here by boat or shore. The harbor and local boat ramps provide easy access to the
river and the sounds for all the sportfishing you can handle. Want to find
the best spots? Charter one of the award winning local guides:

Sailing and Paddling
Sailing Charters have long been a favorite here. You can bareboat charter
or have a Captain take you for a half day or full day sail. Paddlers
can find the supplies they need in Oriental. You can rent a canoe or kayak
there as well.
The Sailing Schools offer one day introductory and five day comprehensive courses. Classes introduce the
beginning sailor to the theory of sailing in the classroom along with "hands-on" instruction on board.
