BREAKING NEWS: Flounder fishing in all of North Carolina is about to come to a sudden halt. The Division of Marine Fisheries anticipates issuing a proclamation next week that closes the commercial and recreational flounder fishing season around Sept. 4. The N.C. Marine Fisheries Commission on Friday adopted the Southern Flounder Fishery Management Plan Amendment 2.The most recent coast-wide (North Carolina to the east coast of Florida) stock assessment for Southern Flounder determined the stock is overfished and overfishing is occurring. Reductions in total removals of southern flounder are required by state law to achieve a sustainable harvest. Read more in next week's State Port Pilot as our fishing columnist Capt. Jerry Dilsaver covers this important news. ... See MoreSee Less

More unique N C History! The “Beachjumpers” are worth studying and learning about! The Navy at its finest! Enjoy!During World War II, Ocracoke was also used by the U.S. Navy Beach Jumpers, the forerunners to the Navy Seals, specializing in psychological warfare and deception. These units were organized by Admiral H. Kent Hewitt, but the concept was that of Lieutenant Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., who, during raids with the British Commando, developed an appreciation for deception as a military tactic and wanted to explore it further.

At the start, 180 officers and 300 enlisted men were needed to start the program, and Admiral Hewitt was put in charge. There were four requirements men had to fill if they wanted to become a Beach Jumper volunteer: basic knowledge of navigation using the stars, experience with handling small boats, no propensity for seasickness, and basic electrical knowledge.

Ocracoke was chosen for a Beach Jumpers’ base because of the island’s remote location. During and immediately after the war, Ocracoke was only accessible by private boat, mailboat, or plane. The Beach Jumpers trained on the island from December 1943 through January 1946. This was a top secret organization, meaning islanders knew nothing about the operations of the Beach Jumpers, and during this time, the base and the beaches were off-limits to locals. On Ocracoke, the Beach Jumpers trained by organizing simulated invasions and battle scenes by setting off smoke pots and exploding firecrackers. They also experimented with tin foil-covered balloons in order to obstruct communications.

DON'T ASK, DON'T TELL! — Coastal Carolina doesn't give up her secrets easily, and neither should you!

This Venus flytrap is a much beloved small perennial herbaceous plant, and easily one of the most widely recognized carnivorous plant species on Earth.

Native only to a 90-mile inland radius around Wilmington, the Venus flytrap is a symbol of the Atlantic coastal plain's unique ecology. They're definitely a top contender for the federal endangered species list, and already a protected species in North Carolina.

Although Venus fly traps are eaten by small animals like birds, squirrels, and raccoons. The biggest threat to these tiny plants are humans!

I often get asked by future clients “are you a drop-off service or a guided tour? And it truly makes a huge difference to your success level! We are a guided tour.

While running to Shark’s Tooth Island I am free to explain our Cape Fear River and it’s sights to everyone. Upon arrival at our destination I am there on the site with you and your party, educating and teaching everyone how to recognize and find the various Shark’s teeth and fossils, explaining the history of the island, how it came to hold so many teeth, and just enjoying the time and day with you and your family! I make sure we all are secure and safe and if weather threatens, I know when to leave.

In many pictures of my groups on the island I am usually the photographer but sometimes I get included in a picture as a member of the party…..I have to admit I just love my work and enjoy making new friends literally from around the world. And at the end of my trips I usually have a special trick or two up my sleeve to close out the day with great memories for all! It’s Lots of fun and children (of all ages) enjoy these activities!

I’m the ole’ White Haired “Sea Dogger” in the pictures below and the kids truly have an adventuresome educational day, one they will remember for many many years to come! Our boat is moored at Carolina Beach State
Park and our clients come from Raleigh, Myrtle Beach SC, and many other points in NC and SC! So join me this summer for a most unique “Adventure” with Capt. Charlie!

My grandson absolutely loved our trip. That’s all we heard was Captain Charlie. Especially when you let him drive the boat. Thank you for all you do for the kids.

HIGHLY recommend Capt. Charlie’s Adventures!!! Our kids (and grownups!) had a blast, we still talk about our adventure even though it was several years ago. You can definitely tell you love your work!!

You are the best, we still tell everyone about you and how great you are with the kiddos

Anyone thinking about going out with Capt Charlie - DO IT! We went last year and it was the highlight of our vacation. He’s so knowledgeable and friendly and fun! He’s great with the kids (and adults) you will not be disappointed

We had so much fun in 2020 with you and my girls still talk about it and the fact that my hat blew off and we had to go back and get it! Some of the best memories searching for shark teeth with Captain Charlie!

Frank Yllins this was the shark tooth guy I was telling you about last year

You are the best, Captain Charlie!!!

We have fond memories of our trip to shark tooth island with you. Hopefully we can make it back this summer for another adventure!

Catherine Waynette Carter Catherine, this is the gentleman out of Carolina Beach who takes people to Sharks Teeth Island. Easily a day trip from me if I can ever get some beach wheels!

Ali Marshall this is what I was talking about!! We ❤️ captain Charlie and found the best teeth!!

Captain Charles is the best! He knows the river and its history like no other, takes his time to explain and teach, plus he's just a real nice guy. There's no one else like him.

I wanna go

You made our trip so fun and worthwhile. We are now shark tooth finding experts thanks to your knowledge!
