Description

Richard C. Peters Park serves as North Topsail Beach's larger town park, offering families a comprehensive recreational experience with both sound-side and active amenities. Located across from Onslow County Beach Access #4, the park features a unique pirate ship-shaped playground that delights children, along with a nature trail that winds through the coastal environment perfect for family exploration. The park provides excellent water access with a soundside pier, gazebo, and kayak launch for families interested in paddling the calm sound waters. Active families can enjoy tennis, volleyball, and basketball courts, while those seeking relaxation will appreciate the picnic shelters with charcoal-ready grills overlooking the sound. As the endpoint of a multipurpose path that runs from Surf City, the park serves as an ideal destination for family bike rides or strolls along North Topsail Beach's scenic coastline.
