Plan a Valentine’s Day Getaway on Bald Head Island

This year is coming to an end and you have been through a lot together. Planning a special Valentine’s Day getaway is just what the two of you need. Why not give a gift this Valentine’s Day you both will love? A trip to Bald Head Island! Here are a few of our favorite romantic settings that the island can provide.

Once you arrive by ferry, you will feel the seclusion of your surroundings. Especially in February, when the season is slower, and you have the island to yourselves. Amid the 12,000 acres, you’ll find 10,000 untouched acres of beach, marsh, and maritime forest preserves all setting the scene for a romantic getaway.

Bald Head Island’s beautiful beaches beg you to stroll down its 14 miles of pristine sand hand in hand. South Beach features long stretches of sand and calmer waters, ideal for walking and taking a dip in the ocean. A picnic for two catching incredible views of the sunset over the Atlantic paints the perfect way to spend time with your love.

Have an adventure together with a hike through Maritime Forest Preserve. Discover wildlife on several of the forest’s trails leading you through the woods, beneath an enchanting canopy of trees. Kayak the creeks gliding together through silent grass spotting egrets and herons resting within feet from you. Sail away aboard Jive or Joyride for a two-hour tour of the Cape Fear River and along South Beach for views of the island seen by few.

Visit the Island Retreat together for some real pampering. Watch tension melt away with a couple’s massage. Begin your wellness journey together with private and group yoga classes. Relax, refresh, and renew as a couple on this beautiful island.

There are so many romantic and fun ways to spend the evening in your Bald Head Island vacation rental. Find your favorite recipe and cook together in a fully equipped kitchen. Pop a bottle of bubbly and celebrate your relationship on a wrap around porch with breathtaking views. Cuddle up by the fireplace listening to your favorite play list. Pick your favorite spot for romance. Happy Valentine’s Day from Bald Head Island!
