Upon exiting the Cedar Island Ferry, we headed south down the North Carolina coast to Surf City. With expectations based on name alone, we were pleasantly surprised to find a small fishing town without much build-up. The island was lined with coastal houses, and only a few stores and restaurants keeping it quaint.
Lanier's Campground was a wonderful stopping spot for us. Their staff was friendly and the kids enjoyed playing pool and air hockey in the campstore area. There was a pool that unfortunately we didn't get to swim in because of passing thunder showers. We did get to crab, fish, and shrimp off the campground pier! Most was done with the cast nets which was great fun. Catching shrimp was a whole new experience for us and we all got involved in the process. 
We also enjoyed visiting the seafood market. We bought some fish and shrimp and enjoyed a feast! It was definitely a place perfect for the Meile's and one we hope to visit again.
