Don't forget to include watersports; perhaps a triathlon which includes paddleboarding and kayak races in your back yard bay, ocean swimming, and biking to Beach Bums Pizza Bar and Grill as a destination. You just can't beat the water access options at Choose Your Pleasure; your own private boardwalk and dock with direct access to the estuaries of Stump Sound, or a 50 step scamper across the road to the Atlantic Ocean. And the games don't stop outside. A roomy open floor plan invites relaxation in the center while a teenager bonus room on the top floor can host riotous games and the lower level man cave can host a poker tournament.

Things To Do 
Topsail Island is a hidden gem along the NC coast, known for its pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and charming coastal towns like Surf City. From sunbathing and swimming to fishing and surfing, there are plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy on this beautiful island. Explore the local shops and restaurants, take a fishing cruise out with an area fishing guide, or simply relax on the beach and soak up the sun. With so much to see and do on Topsail Island, your vacation will be filled with unforgettable memories and moments of pure relaxation. Topsail Island is a 28-mile-long barrier island made up of marshes, estuaries, dunes, and shorelines. Sandwiched between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, “Tops’l” as the locals call it, is home to several fishing piers including the Seaview Fishing Pier. 875 feet of planks were used to construct this pier, which is the longest pier on the North Carolina coast. Privately owned shops, restaurants and attractions abound on Topsail, as well as the neighboring mainland towns. Learn the history of Topsail at the Missiles and More Museum and understand how to be a good steward of the sea at the Touch Tank Aquarium in Surf City and the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue & Rehabilitation Center for laid back and family friendly things to do on Topsail. Each of these attractions offers its own unique charm and adds to the allure of a vacation on Topsail Island.

The Neighborhood:
Things To Do on Topsail Island: Topsail Island is a 26-mile-long barrier island between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, home to the beach towns of Surf City, North Topsail Beach, and Topsail Beach. Spend your days swimming, surfing, fishing, or relaxing on the sand. Cast a line from one of the island's fishing piers, including the Seaview Fishing Pier in North Topsail Beach, the Surf City Ocean Pier, and the Jolly Roger Pier in Topsail Beach. In the summer months, you can book a fishing charter or rent a pontoon boat or jet ski. Around the island, you'll find locally owned boutiques, family restaurants, and ice cream and fudge shops. Soundside Park hosts outdoor movie nights and seasonal events on the Intracoastal Waterway. Learn the history of Topsail at the Missiles and More Museum. Families can explore marine life at the Topsail Aquarium in Surf City and, in season, tour the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue & Rehabilitation Center by reservation. Whether you're looking for outdoor adventure, local dining, or a peaceful beach escape, Topsail Island offers something for every visitor.

Getting Around:
Parking may be limited during the summer months (public parking is available through Pivot Parking at an hourly rate). Surf City/ North Topsail Beaches are easily navigable once you're here. Our beach town is very accessible and family-friendly for vehicles, bikes, and golf carts. Renting bikes and golf carts is a breeze with the many rental companies on the island. Advanced reservations are recommended. For a change of pace, take a scenic Tiki Tour through the Intracoastal Waterway.

Family Vaca

Place was as expected -- great location across road from beach. Road was a bit busy at certain times of the day. Furniture was plentiful for family and comfortable. Kitchen was a bit of a greasy mess - it was wiped down, but very smeared. All in All would rent this place again

Quiet peaceful retreat.

My family really enjoyed the stay. It was quiet but 10 minutes from anything we might need. House was clean and a big bonus with an elevator. Fishing off the pier was a big highlight... nothing big enough to keep but it was very calming. Previous comment about bringing you own sheets was a godsend. Thank you for letting us bring our dogs. The balconies were great for watching sunset and sunrise. Beach was not crowded..i.e. not touristy. We would def recommend this location. Thanks for letting us stay here for week.

Great Location and Layout

Hi- this was a terrific place for a family vacation. We especially liked the location on the sound, but across from the ocean, with views of both. The layout worked well for a multigenerational family and we loved all the decks. The kitchen and linens were understocked and barely sufficient for the 6 of us, and the bunk beds were rickety and uncomfortable. All other beds and furnishings were terrific. Hopefully, the deficiencies will be addressed soon. We had a great time, and would stay again (but bring extra towels, blankets and kitchenware.)
