Best place to view fireworks in eastern NC?

[Joshua Miller]

Looking to maybe see some fireworks from the water this year. New Bern to Wilmington and anywhere in between. Any suggestions?

I am going out on the boat near union point park to see then shoot them at Tyron Palace over the water

@Joshua Miller some great choices not sure the specific dates for the events but the following are some good shows:
-Town of Surf City (Topsail mid-island)
-Figure 8 Island
-Marsh Creek at Scotts Hill Marina (actually the yellow house 4 door south of the marina), tonight at sundown my neighbor is running his semi-pro annual display. I am his sidekick pyrotechnicain this year and will be attempting to retain all key body parts while helping him out.

If you get as far south as Marsh Creek they now have a restaurant and moorings to tie-up while you eat.

Thanks! Not sure about the weather if I'm even going to make it out on the boat but I appreciate the help.

@Joshua Miller..... Typically Surf City always has fireworks on July 3rd. Boating near the swing Bridge will get you a good view. Be advised..... The water is crowded and with the new construction on the high rise Bridge.... there are a lot more obstacles in the water. We went through their yesterday on our way to Hampstead. You can also watch from the water in Swansboro. Just be careful.... Always lot of boat traffic. May not be as bad this year with most people having to go back to work the next day.
