Two Wineries, Distance Of 14.9 Miles – These two NC Wine stops, just minutes away from the popular Brunswick County destinations of Ocean Isle Beach and Sunset Beach, offer a relaxing diversion from the sun, sand and golf of the coast.
The Silver Coast Winery sits on a 40-acre site surrounded by lush woods, and offers a wide variety of wine as well as an art gallery filled with paintings and sculptures.
