While most people think of island vacations as a trip to Hawaii or the Caribbean, you can experience all the wonders and excitement of an island retreat without having to go nearly that far. Just a relaxing twenty-minute ferry ride takes you from mainland North Carolina to the pristine shores of beautiful Bald Head Island, a charming little island destination that offers everything you’re looking for in a memorable getaway.
Bald Head Island Limited welcomes you to experience island living at its finest. Here awaits 14 miles of soft, sandy beaches and endless activities that will keep you entertained throughout your stay. The island’s 12,000 acres include not only the beautiful stretch of Atlantic shores, but also 10,000 acres of untouched marshes and maritime forests. Since the only way to explore the island is by feet, golf cart, or bike, you’re sure to get close to some of these magical places, and even catch sight of some wildlife, too.
Three island marinas are available for your water adventures: Bald Head Island Marina, Deep Point Marina, and Indigo Plantation Marina. Each offers slips for your boat as well as access to Cape Fear River, Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. Bask in the sunshine as you cruise along the waters, cast a line for fish, or keep your eyes open and camera ready for the occasional dolphin.
As if that’s not enough, when you stay with Bald Head Island Limited you will have membership access to the Bald Head Island Club and the Shoals Club during your stay. These memberships provide you with the opportunity to enjoy fun activities right onsite. 
At Bald Head Island Club you will discover the world-class, 18-hole golf course that offers breathtaking ocean views and lush greens. You might even see a fox or alligator wandering the course while you play. If you’re looking for something a little more active, stop by one of four tennis courts for an invigorating game! Both clubs offer large outdoor pools for your relaxation, along with luxury dining options that will keep you satisfied throughout the day.
Top off your island vacation with a soothing spa experience at the Island Retreat Spa and Salon, a little sanctuary within a sanctuary! Whether you choose a refreshing facial or a body treatment such as acupuncture or massage, you’re sure to feel like new by the time you pack up to leave for home. Don’t be too upset, though! Bald Head Island Limited provides a selection of specials such as Stay & Play Packages and Last Minute Getaways that make it easy to book a trip back!
