Sea Biscuit

Before my visit, I had never heard of Holden Beach, but my family and I were excited to discover all that it had in store. Nestled on the southern coast of North Carolina, Holden Beach is a hidden gem situated between vibrant Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and the historic Wilmington, North Carolina. The community enjoys activities such as fishing, boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, and surfing. Holden Beach is known for its distinct "sea biscuits".



Since we visited the island during the "off-season," some places were closed, but we still had the chance to enjoy meals at some incredible spots for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Here are a few of our favorites.



We went for a short adventure and checked out Bridgeview Park. It includes a basketball court (converts into a pickle ball court), a park, and a sheltered picnic table area. Moreover, there's a small library with books for both children and adults.


Holden Beach also has a Walgreens, Food Lion, multiple small boutiques & beach stores to cater to all personal and grocery requirements. To explore more about Shell Cove and book your accommodation, click here.
