4th of July on Pleasure Island

Come celebrate Independence Day with some fun in the sun on some of the most beautiful North Carolina beaches on Pleasure Island! The quaint beach towns of Carolina Beach and Kure Beach have lots to offer at all times of year, but you just can't beat these summer holiday weekends.

Swim, surf, fish, and play in the ocean, walk on the boardwalk, take a bike ride around the island, ride the ferry to or from Ft Fisher, ride the rides at the amusement park, dine on some local seafood at one of the many great restaurants, or just relax and take in the view. There's a little something for everyone!
