Off the coast of North Carolina rests a charming island ideal for any traveler looking to leave the stress of everyday life behind. Bald Head Island is known for miles of shoreline and a laidback atmosphere that can’t be beaten. Before booking your stay at one of the luxurious rentals from Bald Head Island Services, it’s always a good idea to look at the average weather on Bald Head Island for a given season. 

A Guide to Things to Do by the Season

While Bald Head Island experiences generally mild conditions year-round, each season is different. Because of this, one season might fit your ideal activities better than the others.

Spring

Temperatures start in the low 60s before reaching the mid-70s in May. Conditions at night also warm up, which means you have even more time to spend outdoors. However, chances of rain increase, so be sure to pack your raincoat or umbrella. This time of year is great for getting outdoors and hiking through the Bald Head Woods Preserve.

Summer

Daily highs reach the mid-80s between June and August, and humidity is on the rise as well. These months also see the highest level of precipitation. There are endless things to do when visiting during the summer. Go fishing with Angry Pelican, or find a spot on the 14 miles of beaches to spread your towel out.

Fall

September to November is a great time to visit Bald Head Island. Temperatures start to cool off, with daily highs returning to the low 70s by the end of the season. Take in the fall colors on a kayaking adventure on a rental from Riverside Adventure Company.

Winter

If you’re looking to escape the cold that cripples parts of the country, this North Carolina island is a great option. Average temperatures settle around 55 degrees during the day in January, and snowfall is very rare. Learn about area history by visiting the Old Baldy Lighthouse, or curl up in the comfort of your Bald Head Island rental for a holiday movie marathon.
