You can lick your ice cream cone while doing your laundry. Or you can borrow one of the big ol' Buick Roadmaster courtesy station wagons and drive to the hardware store. Or get a fish sandwich and a few beers at one of the many casual waterfront pubs or cafes. We did all of those things (big entertainment for us). I can see why Beaufort, NC was rated by Sail Magazine as one of the top 10 stopovers on the entire ICW. The city marina has floating docks with all the ameneties (power, water, cable TV) at your slip. Plus the fuel lines are run so that you can re-fuel without moving the boat out of the slip! These are the kinds of little luxuries that I so much appreciate, and are rarely found all in one marina. As a bonus, the mariners museum in Beaufort is the best one I have seen so far, north or south. And it is free admission! It's worth stopping just to gawk at all the gorgeous boats coming in and out of the marina. We had to leave because Senara was getting jealous. But we will definitely be back. 
Clawson's Restaurant - you simply must get the Sea Bass Special. And be patriotic about it.
