Things To Do on Topsail Island: Topsail Island is a 26-mile-long barrier island between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, home to the beach towns of Surf City, North Topsail Beach, and Topsail Beach. Spend your days swimming, surfing, fishing, or relaxing on the sand. Cast a line from one of the island's fishing piers, including the Seaview Fishing Pier in North Topsail Beach, the Surf City Ocean Pier, and the Jolly Roger Pier in Topsail Beach. In the summer months, you can book a fishing charter or rent a pontoon boat or jet ski. Around the island, you'll find locally owned boutiques, family restaurants, and ice cream and fudge shops. Soundside Park hosts outdoor movie nights and seasonal events on the Intracoastal Waterway. Learn the history of Topsail at the Missiles and More Museum. Families can explore marine life at the Topsail Aquarium in Surf City and, in season, tour the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue & Rehabilitation Center by reservation. Whether you're looking for outdoor adventure, local dining, or a peaceful beach escape, Topsail Island offers something for every visitor.

Getting Around:
Parking may be limited during the summer months (public parking is available through Pivot Parking at an hourly rate). Surf City/ North Topsail Beaches are easily navigable once you're here. Our beach town is very accessible and family-friendly for vehicles, bikes, and golf carts. Renting bikes and golf carts is a breeze with the many rental companies on the island. Advanced reservations are recommended. For a change of pace, take a scenic Tiki Tour through the Intracoastal Waterway.

Other Things to Note:
You must be at least 25 years of age to book this property.
