Parks & Nature

Nature reserve with a few trails. Accessible by kayak! Lot's of birds. It can be a challenging paddle if the wind is blowing hard.

You can purchase a pass and drive on this part of Carolina Beach. You definitely need a 4WD vehicle and plenty of clearance. You can rent Jeeps and purchase a day pass for a fun day fishing or chilling. Be prepared for crowds on weekends.

Entertainment & Activities

A typical southeastern pier experience. Arcade games, ice cream, pier fishing and supplies, people watching, bird watching all while wondering if you will fall through the cracks between the boards (but that's absurd).

It's a grocery store. It's called Food Lion, or better known as the "Food Dog". But not for the food, the logo looks more like a dog than a lion. It's also more fun to say, "I'm running up to the Food Dog to grab some juice" I think. It's got pretty much anything you need, but it does get busy at peak times because it's the best thing on the island. You can also consider the Sea Merchant on Cape Fear Blvd for basics.

Drinks & Nightlife

Choose your own bottle of beer out of the walk in cooler, pay for the beer and drink the beer on the patio. I bet there are 1,000 different beers in that walk in... Fun spot late night too.
