Could the Brunswick Islands be the best place for boating on the East Coast? Those who return each year seem to think so. After all, the waterways of this coastal paradise entice you with a natural beauty all their own. You'll find public boat access launches throughout our area to help you on your way. If you don't happen to be a boat owner, don't despair; we've catered to your every whim. Why not take a dolphin adventure cruise and capture the balletic leaps of these amazing animals with your camera? Rent a kayak or a canoe and explore the flora and fauna in miles of protected backwaters, lazy rivers, and canals. On a speedier note, why not cruise away on a jet ski, and for the height amazement, try parasailing. From high above the water, you'll have the view of a soaring gull.
