Pleasure Island serves as the focal point for this coastal survey, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the intricate marshlands and sound systems of New Hanover and Brunswick counties. The geography is defined by the man-made passage of Snows Cut, which connects the Cape Fear River to the Myrtle Grove Sound. This engineering feat physically separates the northern peninsula from the beach communities to the south, creating a distinct island environment that includes Carolina Beach and Wilmington Beach.
