Bald Head Island Vacation Rental house

Because there is no bridge connecting Bald Head Island to the mainland, visitors and residents must arrive by boat–either passenger ferry or private yacht. The separation from the mainland is as psychological as it is geographical. With cars left on the mainland, the pace of life on Bald Head slows to that of an electric cart, a leisurely bike ride or a relaxed vacationer’s own easy gait. For all visitors, regardless of age, Bald Head Island stimulates a childlike sense of adventure and a heightening of the senses-from the taste of sea salt on your lips after a morning swim, to the wonder of a clear night sky undiluted by the glare of city lights. The sights, sounds, tastes, aromas and ambiance of Bald Head Island combine to create a getaway you just couldn’t have anywhere else-leaving you with the distinct feeling that you’ve traveled farther, vacationed longer and experienced more.
