Visitors will be close to the cool coastal attractions that are found just south of Wilmington – as well as the historic sites within the Port City itself – with a stay at the Best Western Plus Wilmington/Carolina Beach. This nicely accommodating hotel is slightly separated from the heart of busy Wilmington, but is nevertheless wonderfully close to the town’s top attractions, restaurants, and regions, as well as those gorgeous Carolina Beach and Kure Beach shorelines.
The hotel is situated along Carolina Beach Road, (or US Highway 421), which puts it exactly en route to the southern shorelines, and visitors can always travel north to explore historic Downtown Wilmington, the UNCW Campus, and everything in between. On the premises, guests can enjoy active relaxation at the indoor pool with hot tub or the 24/7 exercise room, and can take advantage of the hotel’s freebies like parking and a daily hot breakfast. The rooms are just as inviting, with free Wi-Fi, flat screen TVs, mini-fridges, desks, and coffee makers, and upgraded suites can also include balconies, whirlpool tubs, and separate living areas for longer stays. With a cool coastal feel and a perfect location for sightseers and beach-goers, the Best Western Plus Wilmington/Carolina Beach is truly accommodating, inside and out.

But despite being an instrumental component to the island's very existence, and a protector against erosion and storms, Bald Head Woods serves a more visible role as a fun, outdoor destination for visitors to enjoy off the beach. A popular spot with bird watchers, hikers and nature fans alike, this rustic destination allows vacationers to easily step off the beaten path, and dive into Bald Head Island's natural landscape.
The fascinating galleries throughout this extensive complex encourage visitors of all ages to meet and mingle with their aquatic neighbors, from interactive exhibits to "touch tanks" where patrons can have personal encounters with local bamboo sharks. This all-encompassing approach to maritime education has made the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher one of Carolina Beaches' most popular local attractions, and is a fun day trip for any Coastal Carolina visitor who wants to get their feet wet in the unique and varied wildlife habitats located just offshore.
