Review:
Masonboro Island is located near the city of Wilmington, North Carolina and can only be reached via the public ferry or private boat. Both public and private boat launches can be found around Wrightsville Beach and Carolina Beach, along with additional boat ramps at the New Hanover County Trails End Park. Trails on the island offer access for day trip visitors to reach the beach from the boat landing areas. Primitive camping with tents is allowed on Masonboro Island with the advisement for visitors to use areas that have already been camped in. Ferries generally land at the north or south sounds.
