The southern region of North Carolina, known as the Cape Fear Coast, encompasses the port city of Wilmington and its surrounding beaches, including Topsail Island. A place of uncommon beauty, this region also holds tight to its historical legacies, and its present day status is of a busy port and film making hub.

Topsail Island itself is rich in history, making the area not only a premier island community, but an educational experience as well. The area has flourished into a quaint seaside retreat since the days of pirate plunder and shipwrecks, although to this day its not uncommon to see beachgoers with metal detectors combing the sand, hoping to happen upon some buried treasure.

Such a place as Topsail Island is a rare find, indeed. Beautiful, uncrowded beaches, in a family-oriented pet-friendly area that places special importance on conservation. Here you'll find all the staples of a seaside community - from fishing to family outings, golf to gift shops, nature to nightlife, swimming to shopping. . Wilmington is just 25 minutes south, catering to all your wants and needs, such as major food and shopping chains, professional sports, its own airport and state-of-the-art medical facilities.
