About This Spot
One of the most famous surf fishing spots in NC and a hotspot for trophy red drum, bluefish, and sharks. The point's shifting currents create deep pockets that hold bait and predators. Fall is especially known for giant reds. 4x4 ORV access makes reaching the point easier, though walk-in access is possible depending on conditions.
