Bald Head Island Limited, LLC: Your Gateway to Marine Careers

About Us

Bald Head Island has seen many important dates in its long and colorful history, but few have had the lasting impact of June 14, 1983, when the George P. Mitchell Family purchased the island’s unsold land and made a commitment to responsible and sustainable development. Many critical decisions were made in those first few years—to abandon an earlier developer’s plans to build a second golf course on the island, but instead dedicate 200 acres of maritime forest as a preserve; to build no bridge to the island, but instead rely on ferry access and golf carts as the primary modes of transportation; and to buck the high-rise building trend overtaking coastal towns, but instead pursue a sensitive land plan that respected the island’s natural environment.
