Things To Do
Cypress Hall
Went there on our first visit to the venue. Their food was so good! We recommend the pimento cheese appetizer and pork cheeks entrée.
Birthplace of Pepsi Cola
Historic building and the birthplace of Pepsi! Would not recommend to Coca-Cola drinkers.
Poppy's Bites & Barrels
Poppy's Bites and Barrels features a modern twist on southern classic food and features unique cocktails, bourbon, wine, and beer. Candied bacon. Need I say more?
Emerald Isle
Emerald Isle is one of the beaches that came highly recommended by the venue owners. It is about a 40 minute drive from the Hampton Inn Havelock.
Carolina Creations
Super cute store with hand blown glass, pottery, and art work. They'll ship to your address! :)
Fort Macon State Park
This is a restored pre-Civil War fort that offers daily guided tours and frequent cannon and musket demonstrations. Extensive exhibits educate visitors on fort history and the natural surroundings. The beach is perfect for swimming, beach combing, or even spotting a dolphin or two. Trails traverse the salt marsh and dune fields and provide the opportunity to see one of the 300-plus species of birds found in the park.
Atlantic Beach
Just a beautiful spot on the water! This is where our Welcome dinner will be, so you can check this out then.
