About North Topsail Beach

About Topsail Island

Located at the north end of the island, this quiet community may be hard to spot. It's mostly residential and does not really have a defined central business district like Surf City does. There are only a couple of restaurants and one store in North Topsail Beach.

It is the wildest part of the island. The sound side is full of broken trees from the effects of coastal storms and must surely be the way the island looked before development began.

North Topsail Beach is a fisherman's paradise. Stump Sound is full of fish, clams, oysters and shrimp. New River Inlet, on the north tip of the island is a favorite place to fish. There is a large, hard sand parking area for cars, and trucks don't seem to have any difficulty driving out to the water's edge.

Canoers and kayakers love the whole area because of the many places with easy access to the ocean and sound.

There are many beach accesses with parking areas open for the general public, some with facilities, but there are some modestly high dunes and bushes ...

If you're thinking about bringing your boat through the inlet, you'd better know what you're doing, the currents are very strong.
