The Carolina Beach Pier is a pleasure, fishing, and amusement pier located in the town of Carolina Beach, North Carolina, between the Cape Fear River and Atlantic Ocean, north of Fort Fisher and south of Freeman Park. At 669 feet (204 m) in length, it is one of the longest standing wooden piers in the United States. The deck of the pier is 25 feet (7.6 m) above sea level, while the top of the restaurant structure at the base of the pier is 40 feet (12 m).[1]
One of the main landmarks of Carolina Beach, the pier is an iconic fixture in the town's prominent beach culture and features one of the most expansive views on the Southeastern shoreline, offering a nearly 270-degree vantage point of marsh and oceanfront.[2] A popular meeting place for surfers, it is the location of various surfing competitions throughout the year. It is also the filming location for various television series and movies.
