Top Things to do in Bald Head Island for 2021

Whether you’ve been to Bald Head Island or not, it’s unlikely you’ve had the chance to experience all the island has to offer. It’s one of the most beautiful and serene places on our East Coast and we hope everyone gets the opportunity to visit. If you are traveling to our North Carolina haven for the first time or you’re a seasoned visitor, here are some of our favorite things to do that you can add to your bucket list this year.

Have you ever tried sailing? Bald Head Island has stunning views that make an ideal backdrop for sailing. Book a sailing experience with the Sail Shop for any skill level. Learn to sail yourself with the kids and enjoy a memory you’ll never forget. You can also join an instructor for a tour of the Cape Fear River and sail along South Beach. Up to four people can go on these tours and enjoy a relaxing ride.  

There are so many things to enjoy at the beach and it’s hard to fit it all in. We recommend spreading out a blanket and enjoying a beach picnic. Oftentimes, your crew can be running back and forth to your beach home for snacks and drinks. Plan ahead and stay together while eating a meal by the shore. Maritime Market offers lunch on the go and even custom appetizers that would be great to enjoy at the beach. You can also order online and get your groceries delivered right to your Bald Head Island vacation rental

You and your significant other can rent a tandem bike from Riverside Adventure Company and go for a stroll through the neighborhood. We’ve seen tandem bikes in movies but how many of us have actually tried it? You get to enjoy some physical activity, beautiful sights, and there is no chance in getting away from each other! If you aren’t up for being stuck together, there are also beach cruisers, adult trikes, and children’s bikes available to rent. 

Check our calendar for exciting events coming up and book during one of the best times of year on Bald Head Island. Easter weekend, Fourth of July, Roast and Toast on the Coast are all popular events on the island. Bald Head Island is a beautiful area year-round so you can’t come at a bad time. It’s a place to create lasting memories and enjoy fun times and take in amazing scenery. Add these things to your bucket list this year and take your island getaway to a new level!
