Topsail Beach reaches from Surf City’s town limits to the southernmost tip of the Island. Not only is it home to beautiful beaches, but it is also home to several restaurants, a general store, unique shops, and a fishing pier. Locally owned and operated motels offer views of the ocean or the sound.  The serene beaches and small-town atmosphere offer a laid-back getaway. According to local legend, Topsail got its name centuries ago when pirates would hide their boats in the channel between the island and the mainland, and only the top of the boats' sails were visible to ships approaching from the Atlantic. Rumor has it, Blackbeard's treasure is still buried somewhere on the island. The town also has its own marina and boat ramp where visitors can participate in all sorts of water activities. Topsail Beach is home to the famous Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center where staff and volunteers care for sick

If you want to take "getting away from it all" to the next level, then Hatteras Island is a perfect choice.  At the heart of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, first time visitors and veterans alike are amazed at just how much undeveloped beach wilderness exists between the island's seven village communities. Imagine endless stretches of natural beaches, sand dunes and sea oats, with the Atlantic Ocean gently roaring to the east, and the vast shallow bay of the Pamlico Sound to your west.  There's little in the way of franchises and fast food but don’t confuse “doing without” with “going without.” Instead, think of soulful coastal restaurants and interesting mom-and-pop shops. Hatteras Island is the location where the vision of Little Pink was born and the community has done a beautiful job creating the perfect retreat experience.  

Nestled just north of the Florida Everglades, Marco Island offers white sandy beaches, beautiful homes, dozens of restaurants and ample water activities, making it one of Southwest Florida's premier living and vacation destinations.
