Carolina Beach is a throwback to days long ago; it is a very family friendly, laid back vacation town. To be such a comfortably small island, Carolina Beach is bursting with things to see and do. Water and outdoor activities are big here, of course, but that's just the start. The attractions are equally diverse, with family-oriented amusements and activities day and night. And most places are within walking distance from Cabana 104. Having fun is easy at Carolina Beach!
