I Love the Port City - How About You?

Have you seen the bumper sticker that boasts "Wilmington Has It All"? I love the fact that you can enjoy three different water venues all in one day, right here in Coastal Southeastern North Carolina. From boating on the Intracoastal, a picnic on the beach, to dinner on the Cape Fear River, most will agree, Wilmington, NC has much to offer residents and visitors alike.

As Summer approaches, It is refreshing to see folks out enjoying cycling, walking, strolling with their children, dogs out with their owners, joggers, and boaters.

The tourists get to enjoy the sunshine and warm breezes of Wilmington and surrounding beaches, while treasuring days with family. Let's not forget about the stunning evening sunsets.

Enjoy the Summer!

Summertime in Wilmington, NC

Diane Parker

The Summer months are favorites here in Wilmington. The weather is perfect, school is ending for the summer, and you can feel the excitement. It is time to discover all Wilmington has to offer. Fabulous beaches, waterways and the Cape Fear River, each with a spectacular sunrise and sunset. The most perfect blue-green water for swimming and boating. Carriage rides, trolley rides, tours by boat, parasailing, fishing, and surfing are some of the Summertime fun we experience in coastal North Carolina.

The real estate market has picked up and the interest rates are still great. If you have thought about selling or buying a home, please give us a call. If you have yet to discover all Wilmington has to offer, it's a great time to visit.
