Honoring Veterans in Carolina Beach

Carolina Beach is home to a proud and supportive community that actively honors and respects veterans.


For those visiting Carolina Beach Motel, a stop at VFW Post 3137, also known as the "Post on the Coast," is a meaningful way to connect with this local tradition. The VFW post serves as a gathering place for veterans and their families, offering a space for camaraderie, support, and remembrance. Visit the Patriots Courtyard, a tribute to veterans' service and sacrifice. This peaceful space allows for reflection and offers visitors a place to honor the brave men and women who have served our country. The post is open to VFW members, active-duty military with valid ID, and their guests, providing a welcoming environment for those who have dedicated their lives to service.


Another unique way to honor veterans is to visit the Veterans Memorial Reef. Located off the coast, this underwater memorial honors veterans and offers diving and boat tours. For military families visiting Carolina Beach, the reef provides a unique and meaningful way to remember those who served while exploring the beautiful waters of the region.


The North Carolina Military History Museum in Kure Beach is an essential destination for those intrigued by military history, adding depth to the rich historical landscape of the Carolina Beach area. Located within the Fort Fisher State Historic Site, the museum presents a sweeping narrative of North Carolina’s military contributions from colonial times through modern-day conflicts. With thoughtfully curated exhibits that showcase authentic artifacts, uniforms, weaponry, and interactive displays for hands-on learning, this museum offers a unique and engaging experience for all ages. 


Located across the Cape Fear River from Wilmington, the Battleship North Carolina is a remarkable World War II museum and memorial, inviting visitors to enter a vital chapter of American naval history. Known for its impressive service record in every major Pacific offensive of WWII, this National Historic Landmark honors the sacrifices of over 11,000 North Carolinians. Unique educational programs and reenactments bring the ship’s storied past to life, while the ship’s thoughtful design ensures accessibility for all visitors. The Battleship North Carolina offers a profoundly engaging tribute to the bravery of its crew, making it a must-visit destination for history buffs, veterans, and families alike.

Family Fun on Pleasure Island

When military families visit Carolina Beach, there is no shortage of family-friendly activities. Spend a day relaxing on the sandy shores, or stroll along the Carolina Beach Boardwalk. The pier is perfect for fishing or enjoying a peaceful day by the water.


For those looking to explore beyond the beach, the Fort Fisher State Recreation Area offers a blend of historical and outdoor activities that everyone in the family can enjoy. From learning about the area's rich Civil War history to hiking scenic trails, there is something for everyone. The nearby North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher is another must-visit destination, where families can interact with marine life, attend educational programs, and learn more about the ocean’s wonders.


After a full day of adventure, Carolina Beach Motel provides the perfect retreat to relax and recharge. Our family-friendly atmosphere, combined with our ideal location near top attractions, ensures that your stay will be as memorable as it is enjoyable.
