Area Overview Tips

  There's so much to do in the area, you might not know where to start. Of course, you're at the beach and you want to get as much beach time as possible, but be sure to include some of the many wonderful museums, art galleries, historic sites and cultural events in your itinerary as well.

 If you’re coming to the Cape Fear Coast as either a new resident or a tourist, plan on bringing only about half as many clothes as you think you’ll need. The area is very relaxed and laid back, and you’ll find most business and many professional people wear sports clothes on most occasions. Khaki pants and a sports shirt will get you by just about anywhere. During the lengthy warm season, shorts and a collared shirt are the uniform of the day and are acceptable almost anywhere, including restaurants.
