A few blocks to the north is Freeman Park where you can drive on the wide-open beach for a private sunbathing spot or a nighttime-time bonfire. 4x4s are required.

A short drive to the south end of the island brings you to Ft. Fisher, the site of one of the last battles of the Civil War and the North Carolina Aquarium at Ft. Fisher where you can get up close to sharks, loggerhead turtles, and Luna - the rare albino alligator. Just beyond that you can catch the car ferry across the mouth of the Cape Fear River to the cozy town of Southport with even more shopping, eateries, galleries, and fun.

Thirty mins. inland is the striking downtown area of Wilmington, NC. Set on the banks of the Cape Fear River, an simple walk along the river boardwalk takes you to stores, eateries, and antebellum homes. Appreciate a horse-drawn carriage tour, then take the short drive across the drawbridge to visit the USS North Carolina - the WWII era battleship moored permanently within view of downtown.
