ISLAND ADVENTURES

Set your sights on adventure while on a professional guided stand up paddleboard excursion to Figure Eight Island. Or recharge on your own private island with a chartered water tour and catered dinner complemented by panoramic ocean views. Relax beachside and send the kids off to a surf day-camp where certified instructors teach the ways of the waves. Head out on two wheels along the River to Sea bikeway with a tandem bicycle rental from island outfitters. Invoke inner peace with a group yoga class on a pier or solo flow in a peaceful garden. 

Eight Insta-Worthy Spots

Take a road trip to the shore and snap a selfie on a pier stretching 475 feet out into the water. Visit the Plant it Pink Garden where colorful pink blooms surround you. Undisturbed barrier islands will have you saying “cheese!” Find these and more insta-worthy backdrops. 

Waterside Jams

The sounds of the season bring outdoor music to the shore. Sip, eat and hear live music weekly at The Oceanic Restaurant and take in oceanfront views on Crystal Pier. Head to Bluewater Waterfront Grill where marina-side views set the mood as music fills the air and boats glide by.
