Arrive by ferry to a car-free paradise where electric golf carts whisk you between maritime forests and pristine beaches. Old Baldy, the state's oldest lighthouse, offers panoramic views worth every step of the climb. Kayak through salt marshes or bike along sandy lanes that wind past historic cottages. The Bald Head Island Conservancy helps protect nesting loggerhead turtles, which you might spot during summer months. Explore the Smith Island Museum of History to understand why this barrier island feels frozen in time. The beaches remain blissfully uncrowded, even when the Cape Fear River side buzzes with activity.
