Swansboro/Emerald Isle Guidebook
Outdoor Adventure
Whether you’re down to rent a kayak for a trek out on the water or would rather hit the trails on foot, Hammocks Beach is a great spot!
Perfect place to view the water, kayak, go on some nature trails, put up a hammock and chill, or just check out the nature center. The ferry also leaves from here to go over to Bear Island, when it’s in season. A must-visit for any family seeking an outdoor adventure in Swansboro.
