Top Sail Island is a laid back beach community with lots and lots of uncrowded beach and a number of decent restaurants. You won't find amusement parks or other touristy stuff here, but if it's beach, food and relaxation that you crave, this is your place.

Please note, if you are reading older reviews, the playground has all new equipment as of the beginning of November 2019! My family stopped here to let the kids run off steam before making our long journey home from the beach. We're glad we did! It is a great little playground with scenic views of the bay and the Surf City Bridge. The brand new play equipment is quite interesting, with a variety of climbing areas (sailing ship themed), spinners, spring dolphins, and so on. We love the spinning orb cage thing, and even us parents took a turn in it! There are clean, accessible bathrooms close by, picnic tables & a pavilion (I don't recall seeing grills), plenty of free parking, and even a cute little free library box! Stop here on your way in or out from your beach vacation as we did to let your kids stretch their legs, or as a diversion from the regular beach activities. Also, right nearby is the Surf City Bridge, with a separated walking area to take in the views of the bay.
