  • For the poetic romantic: Visit the Wrightsville Beach Mailbox. What could be more romantic than writing a love letter and placing it in a beachfront mailbox to be kept safe for a lifetime? This fantasy is a reality at the Wrightsville Beach Mailbox, located at the north end of the beach. Walk the coastline with your loved one and make a stop at the mailbox to write your love letters; then place them inside and let Cupid take it from there.
  • For the classic romantic: Watch the sunrise and sunset. One unique characteristic of Wrightsville Beach is that it offers spectacular views of both the sunrise and sunset. Head to the beach in the early morning hours to catch a breathtaking sunrise with your loved one. Later, enjoy a romantic dinner on the Intracoastal Waterway, where you can take in the sun setting over the sparkling water. The beachfront Holiday Inn Resort Wrightsville Beach is offering special romance packages for Valentine’s Day, so you can enjoy complimentary champagne, chocolates and breakfast for two each day and catch a gorgeous sunrise from the comfort of your oceanfront balcony. Oh boy!
  • For the movie buff romantic: Visit Wrightsville Beach’s filming locations. Many TV shows and movies have been filmed at Wrightsville Beach, including Dawson’s Creek, One Tree Hill and the popular Nicholas Sparks movie, “The Choice.” visit Dockside Restaurant and Bar, a local hot spot overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway that was featured in “The Choice,” or stroll on the beach below the Crystal Pier, where the opening credits of Dawson’s Creek were filmed.

  • For the outdoorsy romantic: Spend some time on the water. For an adventurous daytime date, rent a kayak or canoe at one of Wrightsville Beach’s many rental locations and enjoy some quality time together. The Wrightsville Beach area offers several waterways that you can explore while taking in scenic views of the coastline. If you have never kayaked or canoed before, you can take a quick lesson together and get out on the water in no time.
  • For the foodie romantic: Dine at a romantic restaurant. Wrightsville Beach has a colorful culinary scene, featuring everything from casual beachfront cafes to high-end restaurants. For a memorable date night, head to Wrightsville Beach’s waterfront restaurants, such as Oceanic, Bluewater Waterfront Grill or South Beach Grill. All offer the freshest seafood, delicious cocktails and beautiful views of the water. For a weekend full of culinary delights, book a stay at the Blockade Runner Beach Resort on the weekends surrounding Valentine’s Day, Feb. 10-11and Feb. 17-18. The hotel is offering a special romance package that includes a decadent four-course pre-fix dinner at its EAST Oceanfront restaurant on Saturday, along with an option to enjoy its famous lobster night on Friday and a jazz blues brunch on Sunday. The resort will also treat you to a bottle of wine and sweet treat upon arrival, plus a complimentary cruise during your stay.
