Just two nautical miles off North Carolina’s southern coast, Bald Head Island offers a true change of pace. It’s a place where you come to unwind, enjoy the company of family and friends, and celebrate traditional seaside pastimes. Here, time is measured by the ebb and flow of the tide, rather than clocks or calendars. You’ll arrive by passenger ferry, then travel the island by golf cart, bike or on foot, savoring an unhurried way of life we call “Island Time.”
