FREEMAN PARK - CAROLINA BEACH

Located at the North End of Carolina Beach is Freeman Park. This has become one of Carolina Beach's major attractions. Daily passes can be purchased for $10 or $40 for an annual pass. Four-wheel drive vehicles are required to maneuver through the sand.

Many love the ability to drive up to the edge of the ocean, park the car, set up the chairs , cook out,, camp, bring the pets, and enjoy the day. This is an excellent location to enjoy sunrises and sunsets as well.

The Peacemaker is a 150 foot tall, 3 mast ship owned by a non-profit organization and communal living group called the Twelve Tribes. Free tours of the ship are offered through Azalea Festival weekend. The ship is even more impressive with the masts up.

The ship is manned by sailors 15 to 23 years of age. The venture offers lessons in seamanship, getting along, and character building. After spending the winter in Savannah, it made a stop in Charleston, before docking in Wilmington. This is its first voyage up the east coast.
