Located on what is known locally as Pleasure Island, Carolina Beach and the adjacent town of Kure Beach share 12 miles of ocean front beaches and a casual fun-loving approach to life whose essence is perfectly captured by the area’s nickname.
For home-buyers looking for a relaxed atmosphere with a touch of night life, Carolina Beach is a good choice. You can indulge in all the water sports (fishing, boating, bathing and surfing), entertain your children at the local amusement park or spend a quiet afternoon or evening at one of the town’s parks. Nature lovers will find an oasis at Carolina Beach State park, with its nature walks, hiking trails, camp sites and a marina, and hundreds of species of birds, plants and flowers. Off-roaders will enjoy Freeman Park on the island’s north end, which permits four wheel drive vehicles access to the beach.
The town hosts a series of entertainments during the summer, including the Beach Music Festival, the Seafood, Blues and Jazz Festival and a weekly fireworks show on Thursdays. Carolina Beach is home to numerous dining establishments, including steak houses, seafood and Italian, Mexican and Asian restaurants, fast food franchises and sandwich shops. For music fans there are a number of pubs presenting live music throughout the week during the summer.

Those who like to stay active will appreciate the town’s recent investment in bike paths, part of the government’s effort to make Carolina Beach the most environmentally friendly town in NC. The municipal marina in Carolina Beach features docks and hosts fishing charters and dinner cruises.
Carolina Beach real estate boasts a variety of homes, townhomes and condominiums. Prices range from the exclusive for beach front homes to the affordable for those properties slightly removed from the ocean.
As with all beach communities, the price of hail and wind insurance is costly as is flood insurance. Combined town and county property taxes are $0.63 per $100 of valuation. (Personal property such as autos, trucks, boats, aircraft, motor homes, business assets, etc are taxed at the same rate as real property.) The county is currently reevaluating property taxes, and the new rates will take effect in January 2012.
Those who want to take in the theatre or shop at a department store face a twenty-five minute drive to downtown Wilmington. There is only one grocery store here, located just across the Snows Cut Bridge at the north end of the island. Traffic in the peak season is heavy.
