Things To Do

The Sweet Escape allows every guest to reconnect with nature and spend quality time with family.

The beaches and sounds of North Topsail Island, NC are so therapeutic to the body and soul when you allow yourself to enjoy this natural treasure during your vacation.

Here are some activities which will enhance your experience with nature here.





Find out when the sun rise takes place which varies and plan to watch the sun rise. If you sleep on the air dream mattress in the living room, you may be able to see the sun rise from your bed in the morning.




Go for a walk or run in the morning to the northern end. This is one of my favorite things to do. I enjoy jogging along the ocean until I reach the northern tip of the island. It’s so quiet up there; the sound of the ocean, the smells, the flocks of birds flying just inches above the waves.



Shell and shark tooth hunting. We’ve found some impressive shark teeth fossils in the sand on this beach as well as in the ocean sound while kayaking along some select shorelines. Pick a type of shell you like and try to find as many as you can of that particular type. We’ve also found parts of a sea turtle , horseshoe crab, whelks (see above - they look like conches which are not found in NC), and many other fun treasures just waiting to be found. I’ve compiled some fun printouts on the next page which can be printed and used for adults and kids to identify finds.



Feeding the gulls. Save and bring your stale crackers, cereal, dried bread, for the sea gulls! Feeding the gulls is a tradition and is great fun. You can have a swarm follow you on the beach – once a few discover you many are quick to follow. You can also enjoy throwing food off the balcony for mid air catches.


5.

Body Surfing. Okay, if you’ve never done this, you’ve got to try. It’s so fun. The waves are great most of the time for this fun and easy to learn sport.



We have three boards on site.


6.

Skim boarding. I highly recommend reviewing some basic lessons before trying this. This is considered an extreme sport which means extremely advanced and dangerous to me. If you’d like to try, we have two boards on site. I highly recommend viewing all these videos online before trying. This beach at low tide is absolutely ideal for this sport.

FYI – Again, be careful. Broken ankles are the most common type of injury.
