Shuckin' Shack Oyster Bar
707 Arendell StI grew up on oysters, and these guys have some of the best around!
Recommending with a caveat: Southern Salt has just about the freshest seafood in Morehead, and a gorgeous view, but the service can be spotty to downright incompetent. They seem to have better service during the day.

El's Drive-In
3706 Arendell StIconic drive-in with great shrimpburgers.
This small place is take-out only, but they have a small outdoor seating area. THE BEST old school Eastern North Carolina fried seafood. Be forewarned -- this is in Atlantic NC, not Atlantic Beach. It's 30 miles east of Beaufort, and there's nothing else in the area. Beautiful drive, though.

Iconic drive-in in Salter Path. Not my personal favorite of the local seafood drive-ins (prefer El's or White Point), but worth a visit. Warning: Parking lot is tiny and gets horribly overcrowded in the summer.
