Carolina Beach-What do to, where to eat? (Wilmington, Kure Beach: house, live)

[jmw1682]

My Husband and I are going to Carolina Beach in October. We usually go to North Topsail but wanted to try something new this year. Are there any restaurants in the area that have all you can eat crab legs? Any restaurants suggestion and things we must do while we are there would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks!!

Places to eat: Surf House, Shuckin' Shack, Britt's Doughnuts. No all you can crab legs that I'm aware of. CB isn't like Myrtle Beach, thankfully.

Things to do: NC Aquarium, Ft. Fisher, viist Wilmington.

CB is a fairly small, laid back place, especially in October. Not sure if thats what you're looking for?

You can spend an afternoon at the Lazy Pirate...lots of outdoor activities and the food is good.

I love it when they have live music at the Seawitch...and if the weather is good. As well, a drink outside at the Fat Pelican is a must when going to Carolina Beach.

There is a Nikki's Sushi, which is a local Sushi chain.

And one of the best Italian places in the Wilmington area is Freddie's in nearby Kure Beach. Wilmington folks make the trip down there frequently because it is good.

Two places come to mind for great seafood in the Carolina Beach area...

Michael's Seafood Restaurant & Catering - Home right in Carolina Beach

Fish Bites Seafood Restaurant | American Restaurant | Wilmington, NC just a few miles away in Wilmington

both have some of the best seafood around.... but my favorite of the two is Fish Bites.

Nice menu! When they have Oyster Bombs and Lobster Bisque, who needs all-you-can-eat frozen crab legs?

I totally agree!!! We are coming into town the last 5 days of Sept to house hunt, can't believe this bucket list dream is coming true and we will certainly be trying Fish Bites!!

Thanks, We are looking for a quiet beach like North Topsail so it sounds like Carolina Beach will be perfect!
