Carolina Beach Boardwalk Walkaround

Let me take you around the Carolina Beach Boardwalk and check out what they have to offer. They have some great restaurants, some shopping, ice cream and let’s not forget Britt’s Donuts. Something new this year is the permanent Ferris Wheel. We definitely have to take a spin on that.

    Carolina Beach reminds of Myrtle Beach back in the 60's and 70's,well earlier times anyway.

    Hey, thanks so much for the tour! It's been a few years since we were at Carolina Beach but we're headed there soon. So helpful to see the layout of the stores and restaurants. BTW I'm afraid of ferris wheels too! I'm going to brave it though because I like that it's a permanent ride. Terrific to know that. Thanks for all the great info!

    I absolutely love boardwalks like this. This summer I went to Ocean City MD and Rehoboth Beach DE, and the boardwalks were my favorite part! This is the third video I watch about Carolina Beach NC and I should definitely visit this place. Also, it is pretty cool that you can change the backing of the seats to adjust what you want to look at.

    If you are a fan of boardwalks? You will enjoy yourself at Carolina Beach boardwalk. It has that wonderful small town beach vibe. And nice variety of things to do. I am going to do another boardwalk video later this year at Myrtle Beach, SC. That might be another place to visit also if you are traveling from far away. Thank you for watching. Safe travels my friend!

    Went to Carolina Beach recently. Everywhere you go is Pay to Park. What is a great beach town is being financially hurt by this, as Beach goers simply dont visit as many restaurants and the Boardwalk because the greedy city council wants a few more bucks from tourists. It is hurting the local businesses and favors the few places to stay within walking distance to the Boardwalk. It also huts the places not on oceanfront because even the beach accesses are pay to park. I will visit a beach town who doesn't do this to tourists already taxed from the hotel stay and sales taxes from purchases. Kure Beach is the same way, even pay to park is at the pier.

    I feel your pain. I hated to see the dreaded pay to park signs a few years ago. But, unfortunately other beaches are following the pay to park model. These year Oak Island and I think Holden Beach in Brunswick County are pay to park too. Thanks for watching and commenting. There is a lot of people that feel the same way as you. Have a blessed day.

    I have never had a problem walking around at night. We all always feel safe at the boardwalk. Carolina Beach can have crime just like any other place. But for the most part it is a pretty laid back feel. It will be more crowded in the summer months. But far less than Myrtle Beach. Thanks for watching!
