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.

What to Know about the Annual Festival

Back in the 17th and 18th centuries, the waters off North Carolina’s coast were ruled by pirates, including two of the most famous pirates in the area: Blackbeard and Stede Bonnet. Bald Head Island served as a refuge and home base for these swashbucklers. 

This history is celebrated every year during the annual Pirate Invasion, also known as Pirates Weekend. Held every August, the celebration features a weekend filled with incredible events that bring the stories of pirates back to life. 

Things kick off when the pirates make their way to shore at Marina Park. After setting up camp, they are known to roam the island, causing mayhem and playing music; you never know where they’re going to pop up. Other events include:

The weekend wraps up with a pancake breakfast at Jules’ Salty Grub & Island Pub. In addition to a delicious breakfast, you can also enjoy music and a costume contest. You can even get your picture taken with a pirate.

For more details, including times and locations, check the event’s website for the most up-to-date information.
