Pleasant family beach. Houses very close together, but space is limited. Easy access to City of Wilmington.

WB is a great little beach town but pretty busy during the summer.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Wrightsville is very pretty but lacks restaurants on the actual beach area. Carolina Beach has a much better beachfront area

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

Tower 7 restaurant is right down the street and is delicious. We got up early to watch the sun rise through the glass door to the balcony. What better way to celebrate God’s creation than Watching from a soft sofa in the living room?
