Travel
Figure 8 Island is hidden gem right off the coast of Wilmington, North Carolina where we've enjoyed some of our most special moments together, and we can't wait to share it with the rest of our friends and family. Luckily, it's fairly easy to get to! There are a bunch of direct flights from all major cities into the closeby Wilmington Airport as well as more flight options through the Raleigh Durham Airport, which is about a 2 hour drive from the Island. In terms of accomodations, Figure 8 is located right above Wrightsville Beach and downtown Wilmington so there are plenty of hotels to choose from. There is also the option to rent a house on the island which we recommend doing with a larger group if you are able. See details below!

Figure 8 Island Rentals
If you chose to rent a house, we suggest booking it early and with a group of people. Please note, the rental website requires you to submit a request first as the owner has to approve the inquiry. In addition, we suggest getting some groceries beforehand either through InstaCart or Harris Teeter, which is right off the island!
