Mailboat Aleta

It's that time again. We've just published our most recent Ocracoke Newsletter. This month I reprint a 1951 newspaper article about a trip to Ocracoke before ferries and before the state paved the roads. The article documents the wonderful adventure of crossing Pamlico Sound on the mailboat "Aleta."

Take a journey back in time with us and capture some of the thrill of visiting a place like none other in the world. You can read the newsletter here.

If any of our long-time visitors have stories about trips on the Aleta, we'd love to hear them. Just leave a comment, or send us an email.
