2026-05-05: Bald Head Island Tour, Bald Head Island, N.C.
$95.00
We will travel by van to Southport, hop on the ferry to Bald Head Island, and then enjoy an island-wide
history tour. The Bald Head Island Historical Tour is a comprehensive, island-wide experience aboard a golf cart. Your trained guide will drive across the island while discussing four centuries of Bald Head
Island's history. Themes include piracy, colonization, the U.S. Lighthouse Service, U.S. Life-Saving
Service, and development of Bald Head into an island resort. Your admission to the Smith Island
Museum of History is included, as is the opportunity to climb Old Baldy Lighthouse, with a bonus of a
10% discount in the Old Baldy Foundation gift shop. Lunch at the marina is on your own. Departure time is 8:15 a.m. Activity Level 4.
Level 4: Challenging—You are ready to seize the day, no matter what it may bring. You lead an active life at home. Walking and hiking are things you enjoy; over 7,000 steps a day is normal for you. You can handle longer walks and activities that involve traversing uneven terrain and standing for long periods of time. This level is not a fit for travelers who require mobility assistant devices.
