BALD HEAD ISLAND ATTRACTIONS |
Historic Tour Package
An historical, and sometimes hysterical, narrated tour
of Bald Head Island delivers facts and fancy, legends
and lore. Tours run Tuesday-Saturday starting at 10:30
am. The $40 price also includes round-trip ferry
passage, lunch voucher, and entrance to the Smith Island
Museum of History and the Old Baldy Lighthouse. Tours
for those already staying on the island are available
for $30 (price subject to change without notice).
Call (910) 457-5003 for reservations. |
Fishing
From surfcasting along the shore to dropping a line into
tidal creeks or the Cape Fear River, from trolling along
the massive Frying Pan Shoals to sports-fishing the
prolific Gulf Stream, the waters surrounding Bald Head
Island offer exciting options for visiting anglers.
Offshore, you can fish for tuna, wahoo, billfish and
king mackerel, while inshore fishermen may hook red
drum, pompano, bluefish, flounder and speckled trout.
Boating
For those who plan to cruise to our shores, Bald Head
Island offers a welcoming 10-acre harbour and
full-service marina surrounded by our charming Harbour
Village. An attentive dockmaster and staff can assist
you with small boat and fishing equipment rentals,
fishing charters, and canoe or kayak excursions.
Seaside Pastimes
Take time to enjoy traditional seaside pastimes, such as
crabbing in Bald Head Creek, or combing our 14 miles of
pristine beaches. Surfing and wind surfing enthusiasts
delight in Bald Head Island’s uncrowded beaches
year-round.
Walking, Running and Cycling
Car-free roads through the forest, along the creek and
beside the ocean make Bald Head Island a pedestrian’s
paradise. Site of the TAC-sanctioned Maritime Classic
10K Run each November, the island is full of scenic
running routes. Walking, in-line skating, riding a
scooter and cycling are also popular ways of getting
around the island. Recently, Frommer’s Best Beach
Vacations: Carolinas and Georgia named Bald Head Island
its "#1 Beach for Bicycling."
Nature Walks
It can be argued that any road on the island provides a
nature walk, but for one a bit more off the beaten path,
the M. Kent Mitchell Nature Trail provides a scenic
20-minute walk through the maritime forest and along the
salt marsh and tidal creek. In the summer months, the
Bald Head Island Conservancy conducts Turtle Walks at
night and Alligator and Bird Walks in the morning.
Golf,
Tennis, Croquet, Swimming Pool and Fitness Center
