Masonboro Island is a barrier island in New Hanover County. It lies south of Wrightsville Beach, separated by Masonboro Inlet, and north of Carolina Beach, separated by Carolina Beach Inlet. The island is a destination for boating, surfing, and camping.

Masonboro Island is a mix of marshes, dunes, and tidal flats with beaches along its ocean and sound sides as well as a chain of small hills and wetland islands along Masonboro Sound, which is part of the Intracoastal Waterway. The beaches are a nesting ground for loggerheads and green sea turtles and the waters on the sound side of the island are a nursery for fish such as flounder, drum, spot, and croakers, as well as oysters, clams, and crabs.

Enjoy a special day exploring an uninhabited barrier island. You will feel a world away from the usual hustle and bustle of Wilmington while really only being a 5 minute boat ride away.
