This is the Perquimans River in Perquimans County, North Carolina. The river is a tidal estuary and flows very slowly due to the area’s flat topography. For this reason, much of its banks are covered in cypress swamps. It is located completely within Perquimans County and drains to the Albemarle Sound.
