Publisher's Synopsis
The Cape Fear coast is one of North Carolina's most scenic regions and Wilmington lies at the center of its beauty. The Port City has appeared in countless films and tv shows, is home to notable athletes and celebrities, and ranked as one of the country's best beach towns. It's small enough to feel a sense of community and southern charm but flourishing with a robust influence of art, culture, business, and innovation. In these pages, you'll find ideas on how to experience all that Wilmington has to offer. From the sun and sand of Wrightsville Beach to the streets of historic downtown, there are plenty of attractions for every visitor, no matter the season. Step aboard the USS North Carolina, stroll the Riverwalk, or attend one of UNCW's sporting events. Take advantage of miles of waterways, greenways, parks, and trails or shop local on Castle Street or the Brooklyn Arts District. With 100 Things to do in Wilmington, North Carolina Before You Die, longtime local Amy Conry Davis gives you a great start on what to see and do. The rest of the adventures are up to you.
