Bogue Sound| Sheltered inlet of the Atlantic Ocean in southeastern North Carolina, 40 km/25 mi east of Jacksonville; length 40 km/25 mi; width 4 km/2.5 mi. It is separated from Onslow Bay by the Bogue Banks barrier island, and connects with the ocean via the Beaufort and Bogue inlets. |
| A bridge crosses the eastern end of the sound between Morehead City on the mainland and Atlantic Beach (population (1990) 1,900) on the island, and another crosses the western end between Cape Carteret, on the mainland, and the island. |
| The sound and island are noted for fishing, and the Theodore Roosevelt State Natural Area protects ospreys, snowy egrets, and marine life. |

| In the first year (2007) we established spawner sanctuaries inside stockades in Back Sound (at Middle Marsh) and western Bogue Sound (near Lovett Island) and in the second year (2008) at Middle Marsh, Lovett Island, and in northern Core Sound (at the Swash). Forty students were on a bus headed to Broad Creek Middle School when an SUV collided with the bus on Bogue Sound Drive in Cape Carteret. Although such restrictions were introduced to Bogue Sound in 1992 in response to the 1987 red tide that decimated scallop populations in that water basin (Summerson and Peterson, 1990), this conservation-based measure was discontinued in 1998 because of social pressure from fishermen. |
