Sea Tern is a small subdivision of 28 lots, each ranging in size around 15,000 sq ft, which is large enough to hold a large house with a private in ground pool. There are no amenities so the HOA collects a small fee from the owners to maintain the beach access and the private road. Sea Tern is located in Duck just north of Port Trinitie and south of Caffey's Inlet Hamlet.
