Johnnie Mercer's Pier
This pier makes for great sunrise photos. $2 to walk out onto it but totally worth it. Lots of avid fishermen to entertain you AND they sell beer and other beverages to carry out there with you. The Wilmington/Wrightsville Beach is a great area to visit with numerous excellent breweries and many great restaurants.

Tru By Hilton Wilmington Wrightsville Beach

Tru By Hilton Wilmington Wrightsville Beach

10/10 Excellent
"I love that I know what to expect when I stay at a Tru and have started deliberately choosing them when I can. Great value, updated amenities, great breakfast. My son loves the hot chocolate in the lobby and the pancake “robot” at breakfast. I love that we can easily log into Netflix or Disney+ from the TV. Comfortable beds, spacious bathroom, very friendly staff. "
