Topsail Island: Topsail Island (pronounced “Topsail”) is one of the best-kept secrets among East Coast beaches. Located along North Carolina’s southern outer banks, Topsail Island is a 26 mile long barrier island of spacious sandy beaches and tranquil maritime forests. It’s hard to discover such a place today as friendly and casual, with such pristine sand and surf, water sports, recreation, fine dining and shopping adventures. This is Topsail Island located midway between Wilmington, to the south and Jacksonville, to the north.

The island consists of three towns, North Topsail Beach, Surf City, and Topsail Beach. The two mainland towns of Sneads Ferry and Holly Ridge complete the section known as the Greater Topsail Area. Two bridges allow access to the island, a new high rise bridge on NC Route 50 to Surf City, or by NC Route 210 over another high rise bridge in North Topsail Beach.

Climate: The climate in the area is typically seasonal and generally mild. Summers are warm with lots of bright sunny days that are great for all outdoor activities. Winters are short and mild. Spring averages a temperature in the 60’s with scattered showers ending as quickly as they start. Fall brings cool sea breezes and an average temperature of 65 degrees.

Activities: Activities are abundant on and off the island. Swimming, sun bathing, surfing, shells and sharks tooth hunting, dolphin watching, golf, deep sea charter fishing, fishing piers, surf fishing, jet skis, parasailing, miniature golf, go carts, water slides, kayaking, scenic boat tours, scuba and snorkeling, sailing and motor boating in the sound, Intracoastal Waterway, or the ocean.

The Topsail Island area is a special place to enjoy a wide range of recreational activities or to just relax and enjoy the beautiful sunrises and sunsets, star-filled nights and bountiful native birds and other wildlife in a serene atmosphere. Come for a visit or a lifetime!

July 8-15th
Location and home were great. It would be helpful if the beds were a little more comfortable and if they had more storage in the bedrooms and kitchen. The place is lovely though and would stay again.

Beach week
Location to ocean was great. Not even 5 minutes and we were on the beach. Very well stocked kitchen. Lots of games and toys etc. for our 16 month old. The furniture in the living room was a bit worn and in need of a good cleaning. Otherwise comfortable. My largest complaint was the Brivo was in the primary bedroom. It was constant blinking light all night. Once we put a towel over table in front of the box, it was not as noticeable. We had a enjoyable time

Family Beach Vacation
Stay was wonderful. A lot of steps for 77 year olds but no problem for the youngers. Surf City and the beaches were not crowded and the traffic was manageable. The place was clean and "ready to go" when we arrived.

What a beautiful location. Had a great time enjoying the beautiful weather and plenty of room
Close to the beach. Great view from the two balconies. Very clean and kitchen well stocked with kitchen utensils. Had a wonderful time enjoying all the coffee shops gift shops and trying new foods at the local eateries. Perfect location close to beach and close to our military family which we enjoyed spending the Christmas with. Highly recommend and look forward to visiting again.
