Overview

Coinjock is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP) in Currituck County, North Carolina, United States. As of the 2020 census, Coinjock had a population of 337. It is located on U.S. Route 158 between Barco and Grandy, about 20 miles (32 km) south of the Virginia state line, and is at mile marker 50 on the southern portion of the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal, on the Intracoastal Waterway. Church's Island to the east of Coinjock in the Currituck Sound has a village called Waterlily, which uses the postal address of Coinjock as well. The island's name is not due to a decayed church that was once a landmark of the tiny community, but because it once belonged the family & descendants of Captain Richard Church -. Coinjock is bordered by Currituck Sound to the east; the North River lies to the west. Its ZIP Code is 27923.
