A few of us on the Bear Island adventure elected to camp at the nearby Cedar Point Campground in the Croatan National Forest. Large, partially shaded, sites with electricity were $30 a night including the transaction fees. The campground was full over the weekend, so reservations are recommended.
A fishing pier and small boat ramp are just past the campground entrance. Three parking spaces for vehicles with trailers are very short.
The small parking lot also serves the "Tideland Trail" consisting of two loops with boardwalks and gravel paths that traverse the salt marsh. The longer loop skirts the White Oak River and travels in and out of coastal evergreen forest. We visited close to low tide and enjoyed the colonies of fiddler crabs running in and out on the mud flats.
We would stay here again when visiting the Swansboro area.
