It is said that 200 years ago large amounts of gold were buried on the neighbouring Oak Island. Many books have been written on the supposed buried treasure. Take a kayak out to one of the many islands and enjoy being Robinson Crusoe for a day. Try your hand at fishing and if you are successful, you can enjoy a delicious barbecued fish supper.
At the nearby Oak Island Resort and Spa, you can hire various sailing and motorboats. Fishing trips and other excursions can also be booked here.
Best time to travel
Crandall Point is pleasant and accessible all year round. Spring, summer and autumn are all ideal for touring, though if you wish to ski, you will naturally have to come in winter or early spring. Swimming and sunbathing is excellent in the summer months of July and August. Enjoy Indian summer from late September to mid October when you can experience an explosion of autumn colours, an abundance of wildlife, and an orchestra of sounds.
