One of the oldest wooden piers left, an it has always been a good experience. Helpful employees, lots of fishing supplies and gifts. One rod allowed. Parking can be a bit of a challenge. Full review by 647eddiee

In addition K Avenue, there is parking down the boardwalk (in front of the beachfront community center) along Atlantic Avenue. It's true that spaces fill up quick. It's likely best to get there by 10 AM at the latest. The crowd thinks a bit after 2 PM, and then picks up quickly again after 5 PM. It will be very difficult to find a parking spot after 6 PM most evenings. If you are looking for a "slow" day in-season, Sundays are almost always best.

A:
Yes, there is fishing. A regular pier fishing pass is $7 per rod, while kingfishing at the end of the pier is closer to $20. There are four restaurants in walking distance that range from calabash-style seafood, Italian, and American diner fare. One shirt shack and a bar round out the offerings just outside of the pier. If you wish to drive a few miles south, there is a great aquarium and the Ft. Fisher Civil War site. The same area features a ferry can take you to the town of Southport for shopping, food, and more.
