Home to the state’s oldest standing lighthouse, Old Baldy which was constructed in 1817, Bald Head Island, North Carolina, is just a two-mile trek across the Cape Fear River from Southport. Comprising twelve thousand acres, Bald Head Island encompasses ten thousand acres of gorgeous unspoiled maritime forest preserves, marsh, and beach. The remaining land in Bald Head Island consists of charming neighborhoods, perfect for spending a week, a season, or a lifetime.
Bald Head Island is the southernmost of the state’s cape islands, located at the confluence of the Atlantic Ocean and the Cape Fear River. It is accessible via a twenty-minute passenger ferry to the harbor on Bald Head Island from Deep Point Marina on the mainland.
In addition to a fabulous location and abundance of natural beauty, the island also offers a vast array of recreational opportunities, including those found at the members-only Shoals Club, a recently renovated golf course, and several full-service marinas. Bald Head Island is also home to an eclectic collection of small boutiques selling jewelry, art, furniture, clothing, and gifts, and an incredible day spa. Even more impressive are the island’s dining choices, which include places like Island Sandpiper Ice Cream and Coffee, Maritime Market Cafe, Jules’ Salty Grub, and Island Pub, Times Cafe, Delphina Cantina, Will O’ The Wisp, and Sweet Bay Catering.
