The major mode of transportation on the island is golf carts.
Our first stop was to rent a cart for the day and explore the island. We knew we wanted to explore the beaches and hike a nature trail.
Tim saw a deer and we saw many different birds and a turtle's nest marked off for safety. The island is also home to alligators and red and gray fox. Thank goodness we didn't see any alligators.
We saw a snake on the road, and we saw other snakes at the Conservancy. I think Bald Head Island would be a great place to vacation with children because there are so many nature activities to enjoy.
Next week I'll share more about the Conservancy.
