Situated at the southern end of Topsail Island, off the coast of southeastern North Carolina, the Town of Topsail Beach is one of three communities located on this 26-mile long island. The Island is just off US Highway 17, about half-way between Wilmington and Jacksonville. Topsail Island has a rich and varied history.Incorporated in 1963, the Town of Topsail Beach boasts a friendly, family oriented style of beach living. High rise development is not allowed, beautification is encouraged, and conservation of the island environment is a top priority. There are over 1200 homes, but only about 500 year-round residents. The seasonal influx of tourists increases the population to about 7,000, which helps sustain the town’s motels, restaurants, gift shops, fishing pier and other businesses.
