1000 Loggerhead Rd Kure Beach, NC 28449 United States
We highly recommend walking the Basin (Hermit) Trail and enjoying the beach at Fort Fisher. There are beautiful trees, a 4WD beach, and free parking. This is also close in proximity to the ferry if you want to take that to Southport and Bald Head.

Catch the ferry to Bald Head Island! We absolutely recommend a day trip (or even an overnight stay) to beautiful bald head island. Rent or bring a bike or golf cart! No cars allowed on this island. Grab a map on the island and explore all of it! Grab a bite at Jailhouse Provisions and wander around the marina, check out points of interest like Cape Fear Point, South, East and West Beach

Surfing
