The island is about 15-20 minutes from the heart of Wilmington. Commuters can expect moderate traffic depending on time of day and season. Highway 17 North is a four land road and Porter’s Neck Road leading to the island is a two lane road. Once on the island, there are about 20 smaller roads winding throughout the homes.
