Britts Donut Shop 2015 Opening Date!
Pleasure Island's favorite sign of Spring is almost here...Britts Donuts will open for 2015 on Friday March 27th at 4:00 PM!
The long awaited sign appeared recently on the door to this beloved spot on the Carolina Beach Boardwalk which has been making delicious donuts since 1939.
In case you're not already among Britts' legions of devoted fans, don't worry about making tough decisions...Britts serves up just one type - a perfect glazed donut, piping hot, sugary, that melts in your mouth. You can't have just one, and they are best eaten directly from the bag just as soon as they're cool enough to handle. Good luck waiting that long!
When Britts first opens in 2015 they will be open Friday evenings, Saturdays, and Sundays, and will expand the schedule to seven days a week as we get closer to summer.
Thanks to Britts Donuts for making Pleasure Island a little sweeter each summer!

Another public service activity is our Vessel Safety Check to examine boats for required equipment and award a Coast Guard-recognized compliance decal to vessels that pass the inspection.
