From our family to yours.

Our family's presence on Bald Head Island dates back to 1983, when the Mitchel Family purchased the island and infused new vitality and vision into its development. What began as a weekend bicycle and canoe rental operation, Riverside Adventure has grown over 38 years to include restaurants (Delphina, Sandpiper, and Will O' the Wisp), retail (Riverside Adventure, Friendly Fox, and The Sail Shop), outdoor recreation (Bike Rentals, Kayaking, Paddle Boarding, Surfing, Sailing, and Fishing), and family entertainment (Sunset Celebration, The Ghost-Walk, and Children’s Treasure Hunt).

At its core, Riverside Adventure Company is all about family. Our business philosophy is simple: celebrate all the magic, mystery, and adventure that is Bald Head Island. From Plunkett and myself to every one of the over 1,100 staff members we've hired since we first began, we're committed to making your family's time on this island exciting and memorable. We can't wait to welcome you (or welcome you back)!
