Things To Do
Swansboro
Swansboro (the groom's hometown!) is known as the "Friendly City by the Sea." This inviting downtown on the water has bars, restaurants and historic homes all in walking distance.
Front Street Grocery
A cozy store that sells local snacks, beer and wine. A great place to relax and meet locals. The bride works here part time!
Bake Bottle & Brew
One of our favorite spots downtown. This waterfront house, also known as Willie Nilly Warehouse, serves beer & wine and sells an assortment of fun goods. With a laidback atmosphere, it's a great spot to kick back and enjoy the view and catch live music.
il Cigno Italiano
The owner is a good friend of Roger and Vicki Brown so you Milanese better behave!
The Boro Restaurant & Bar
Riverside Steak & Seafood
Sweeter Things Bakery Cafe
Lady Swan Boat Tours
One of the best ways to see Swansboro is on the water. Book a sunset cruise and look out for dolphin, osprey and all the natural beauty this town has to offer. Jake used to charter this boat and give tours!

This walking ghost tour is a great way to explore Downtown Swansboro and learn about it's rich history and spooky spirits.
