Kure’s Beautiful Birds
Bird watching enthusiasts and casual observers find much to appreciate about Kure Beach and its wonderful natural surroundings. Visitors might take a leisurely stroll through three sites along the North Carolina Birding Trail, which links great bird watching sites with communities, businesses and other local historical and educational attractions. Kure Beach’s three N.C. Birding Trail sites include the Fort Fisher State Historic Site, Fort Fisher State Recreation Area and the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher. Popular birds indigenous to the area include gulls, pelicans and warblers (http://bit.ly/q6jZY0). |
Delicious, Classic Dining
Kure Beach’s fresh, local seafood and other treats keep visitors and families coming back year after year. Many people choose to kick back after a long day in the sun with a meal at Big Daddy’s, Jack Mackerel’s Island Grill or Freddie’s Oceanside Grill (http://bit.ly/kFhNW8). These great eateries offer food with a family-friendly atmosphere. |
Fort Fisher Family Time
A great, carefree family destination for many is the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher, which features more than 2,500 animals on display, touch pools, daily live presentations and feedings, and dialogues with divers in a large ocean tank. While you’re there, be sure to check out the new, interactive Megalodon shark exhibit (http://bit.ly/ldliNN).
