Where you’ll be

Surf City
Surf culture meets barrier island beaches and sea turtle watching in a small coastal community with piers, dunes, and open Atlantic views.

From the host

The combination of coastal setting, safe neighborhood, ocean views, beach access, plus luxurious amenities, family fun, and historical pirate-themed decor, make this vacation home a rare treasure.

This area has been consistently voted as one of the most family-friendly seaside vacation destinations on the East Coast! The welcoming, small-town atmosphere, the ban on all high-rise development, the focus on island conservation and environmental highlights have leveraged Topsail as a serene, tranquil, clean destination with uncrowded beaches. Park your car and explore charming neighborhoods by foot, bicycle, scooter, or golf cart.

Surf City has grown from a small fishing village to a year-round community of 2,000+. The Pender County portion of Surf City is part of the Wilmington Metropolitan Statistical Area, while the Onslow County portion is part of the Jacksonville Metropolitan Statistical Area.

Love to fish? Be sure to visit the Surf City Pier, one of the best fishing piers on the Atlantic Coast. Alternatively, consider chartering a private fishing boat from one of the area’s licensed captains. (It’s often said they know where the fish are!) Enjoy watersports; rent kayaks, jet skis, paddleboards, paddlewheels, or pontoon boats.

Sign up for ecological tours, educational excursions, or sunset cruises. Visit the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Hospital and Rehabilitation Center and the EMA Touch Tank Aquarium. The Kenneth D. Batts Family Park has a terrific playground for children. Enjoy family fun and recreation at Shipwreck Point Mini-golf!

Seeking rainy day activities? Visit the Surf City Art Museum or Thurston Art Gallery. Walk to seafood restaurants, ice cream parlors, tiki bars, barbecue joints, pretzel stands, donut shops, boutiques, pier, and grocery markets. There is plenty to do here. The restaurants are great!

Carolina Beach is the closest city for those craving cosmopolitan activities. Summer season features outdoor concerts, fireworks displays, and outdoor movies at Carolina Beach Lake Park. Check out annual events such as seasonal fishing tournaments, the famed Pleasure Island Seafood, Blues & Jazz Festival, the Carolina Beach Music Festival, or the annual Pleasure Island Chowder Cook-off. Kids (and kids at heart!) will love the skate park, disc golf course, family-friendly beach arcade full of classic arcade games, and the amusement park area with rides.
