Wilmington, located on the southeast coast of North Carolina, is a popular tourist destination as it offers the Cape Fear River and its history of trade, legends of ships run aground and piracy, many historical sites, beautiful beaches, and wonderful restaurants in the area. As Thursday evening is free, DeL guests are invited to explore Wilmington on their own terms… whether it’s a ghost walk in the historic downtown river district, a film in downtown’s lovingly restored Thalian Hall , a barefoot walk along the Wrightsville Beach dunes and piers, a dining excursion of nearly any persuasion, or a trip to the outdoor shopping center known as Mayfaire Towncentre  which boasts shops, restaurants, and movie theaters.

The Holiday Inn at Wrightsville Beach does provide free transportation to two shopping and dining destinations: Lumina Station and Mayfaire Towncentre. Otherwise, taxis can be arranged by contacting:
 Port City Taxi

Angels Taxi
Lett’s Taxi
Coastal Yellow Cab
