Visitors to the central Crystal Coast region who want to embark on a wild island adventure without venturing too far away from the mainland can enjoy a relatively easy trek with a visit to Sugarloaf Island. Veritably hidden in plain sight, this unique little island is located just a shell’s throw away from Morehead City, and yet feels like it’s worlds away from the busy downtown area.
The Crystal Coast is a well-known paradise for anglers, thanks to miles of water in every direction, and a famed distinction as the locale for some of the biggest fishing tournaments along the East Coast. From heading miles offshore to target the summertime billfish to checking out the two local oceanfront piers, there’s ample ways for fishermen to get their lines wet.
Come view the handsome sunrise and sunset at our bungalow. Sit on your back deck facing the water and savor the view. Then jump in your boat and hit the sound for fishing and swimming before coming home and calming in your gorgeous surroundings. This four bedroom, 2 bath home has plenty of room for everybody. The living area is open concept with full view of the sound. The back deck gives you plenty of room to relax and the front yard has plenty of room for the kids to run and play. So bring your boat, use the boat ramp right next door, and tie it up to the boat dock, so you will be ready to go first thing in the mornings. You will want to come back every year!
