Surf City Real Estate, Homes for Sale, and MLS Listings
Straddling the line between Pender and Onslow counties, Surf City is at the center of Topsail Island both geographically and commercially. The commercial hub of the island, Surf City is the place to find most of the restaurants, gift shops, grocery stores, churches, and surf shops on the island. The city is linked to the mainland by a swing bridge, which usually opens on the hour to allow boats to pass through the channel
The largest of the three Island towns, Surf City is governed by a council-manager form of government, consisting of a mayor and five council members, who appoint the town manager.
With a growing year-round population, Surf City is expanding and now extends well beyond the island to the mainland. The city features an oceanfront welcome center, bike paths, and a community recreation center. The new Soundside Park near the swing-bridge is a perfect place to enjoy a picnic and watch the boats go by.
