The family and I are heading there next week and I've never been so I was hoping to get some input on some good local restaurants and also some activities the island offers. From what I researched this seems like a pretty quite island and it looks like there isn't to much going on, I might have to travel to Myrtle or Wilmington..

If you want night life you will have to travel to Wilmington or Myrtle. There are a few small bars on the Island. There's a pretty decent Irish Pub in Southport called Slainte that has a decent crowd most nights. Also for good food your best bet is downtown Southport if you want to stay close to the island. I live in Southport BTW.

I think the object of going here, or anywhere in Southern OBX or further up, is to relax and be away from all the restaurants, the mini-golf courses and amusements, and a beach-wear shop on every corner. I prefer going to Emerald Isle, NC, but having young kids, we go to the MB area just to have poo to do.

Bettys Restaurant in Holden Beach isnt too far and has good seafood.

If you have kids take the ferry from Southport to the Fort Fisher Aquarium- you can also hit some places in Carolina Beach that way if you want to drive up that far.

Personally - Id stay the hell away from both Wilmington and Myrtle if it were my vacation.

I'll be down there next weekend, too. I hope to do some fishing either in the surf or off of the pier.

Go check out the lighthouse and the Coast Guard Station. Certain days of the week you can climb the lighthouse, and you can tour the Coast Guard Station, too.

There is also the Oak Island Nature Center, which is cool if you are into that kind of stuff.

You can catch the ferry over to Bald Head Island and check out the lighthouse there.

As for food, we usually hit Clem's Seafood and get fresh shrimp and fish to cook at the house. We also never miss the chance to go to Yacht Basin Provision Co.

      PFF names Panthers QB Bryce Young the best deep passer

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      It's really only been 2 games. The NO team was so bad their coach was fired after the game and Chuba and the defense carried the team to the win against NY. He's played better but I'm not willing to crown him QB god yet. I want to see more than 2 games or even the rest of the season. I want a full 3rd season with the occasional clunker because it happens to every QB, even the great ones. I just need more than what we've seen to this point.

      So you proceed to let me have it since I’m asking for it lmfao by saying we’re not talking about a random if….what in your head doesn’t click If statements are not realistic. If statements allow me to say anything and make it sound logical. “If” statements in this forum allow anyone without real statistical evidence or factual proof say anything will or can happen so speak directly to facts without these goofy azz if statements or accept all “if” statements. And to respond to your nonsense he had weapons he had protection. He had a rookie WR playing his first NFL game with Mingo and DJ as his other primary targets. How have either preformed since being traded let’s go deeper into that he had weapons. His top targets(week one) XL 7 targets DJ 6 targets Mingo 5 targets now the rookie has has about 8-9 games before Bryce’s return and we’ve seen XL develop some since the start of the season. And those other TOP weapons have a combined 3 catches in a combined 9 games since being traded. 5 for DJ 4 for Mingo these are the top targets your refer to as who he should have been shining with. Is it all on Bryce or these WRs being actual liabilities and not good players does that matter to you or should Bryce be able to elevate them? Do you really know football or is this my 12 yr old nephew spewing a childish mindset and asking us to accept it as serious football talk.  I’ve just seen the post from @Icege It’s sad after being shown actual facts you don’t know what you should be eating crow about buddy grow tf up. It’s ok to be wrong it doesn’t make you a bad guy you’re just wrong about Bryce . You said quote “Bryce can’t throw down field” do you still feel that way? You said a lot of nonsense that has now been proven wrong but we need to keep waiting right ok kool. I can agree with that we need more much more good play before we fully commit for next season, but to act like the progression being shown isn’t impressive as sht. We’re seeing Bryce play good while waiting on more consistency to crown em but you gotta get out of that dark place because living in denial is a bad place to reside.

      Free agent WR targets?

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      Thielen is a free agent, isn't he? And regardless we need a younger version of him anyway. I see XL + Coker as our #1 and #2 with Palmer as the #3 in that scenario.
