Come visit this beautiful Historic town dating to the early 1700s, and gently nestled beside the lovely jewel known as the Pamlico River. The first and oldest Washington in the United States, this town is full of history and new life. Music In The Streets, Summer Festival, Smoke on the Water, historic homes, antique stores, art galleries, friendly people, and a more laid back way of life make Washington the ideal place for a quite getaway at the Heart of the Inner Banks.
