Year-round coastal fun comes naturally in North Carolina’s Brunswick Islands, where nature’s creations and inspiration invite families to get away and forge memories to last a lifetime.
Dip your toes in the Atlantic Ocean’s gentle waves, and then savor a double dip of ice cream in one of our unique island towns. Stroll 45 miles of un-crowded beaches, with soft sand ideal for seeking the perfect shell or fossilized shark tooth, build sandcastles together and simply bask in the warmth of the sun. Or take a leisurely walk through the area’s quaint shops, galleries and museums inescapably tied to the romance and history of the sea. Ponder the universe under the stars on pristine beaches far removed from the glare of city lights or in a state-of-the-art planetarium. Explore nature up close in tidal pools teeming with life, and watch as ghost crabs perform evening ballets across the sand and baby turtles march to sea. Relive the history of early America and savvy pirate adventures. Or plot your own escape with a good book in a swaying hammock as you begin and end your days with spectacular sunrises and sunsets over the water.
The Brunswick Islands and mainland towns boast activities appealing to all ages and interests to fill your days––and nights–all year long, thanks to our temperate climate. Explore artifacts of colonial times at Brunswick Town Fort Anderson. Hear tales of legendary pirates Blackbeard and Stede Bonnet at the N.C. Maritime Museum in Southport. Brighten your appreciation for seafaring adventures at North Carolina’s oldest standing lighthouse, Old Baldy, and the Oak Island Lighthouse, once the second brightest in the world. Look to the sky in Sunset Beach, a prime spot for bird watching, as well as stargazing at the Ingram Planetarium. Then hold a star in your hand—a sea star, that is, in the Museum of Coastal Carolina at Ocean Isle Beach, or fish and surf your way to fun in Holden Beach, home to a variety of water sports. Delight in Shallotte’s charming shops, along with the area’s many annual fishing tournaments and seafood festivals––and be sure to sample Calabash’s world-famous seafood!
Golfers of all skill levels find natural inspiration too in the Brunswick Islands, North Carolina’s Golf Coast . Play a delightfully unrushed game any time of the year on one of more than 30 championship courses designed by greats like Arnold Palmer, Rees Jones, Dan Maples Willard Byrd, Tim Cate, Fred Couples and Hale Irwin which feature natural backdrops of water, marsh, maritime forests—even the Intracoastal Waterway.
Stay a weekend or a week—or longer. Plentiful accommodations include oceanfront hotels as well as motels, condos and rental homes. Relax in your fully furnished and equipped “home away from home” with your family. Or share a spacious beach house with friends and relations, a naturally attractive option that brings you and your loved ones together for a vacation that’s not only enjoyable, but also economical.
Come. Explore. Relax. Enjoy. Discover more beach for your blanket in North Carlolina’s Brunswick Islands.
