If you're an advid golfer, you wouldn't think golf and sand go well together - especially if you find yourself in a sandtrap. But for Pender County, golf and sand go hand in hand.

On May 1-7, the Wells Fargo Golf Championship is coming to Eagle Point, a beautiful and exclusive golf course on the Intracoastal Waterway.

One of the major parking areas will be in Hampstead, an unincorporated community in Pender County. This is a perfect location for anyone wishing to stay on Topsail Island, drive to the parking area and shuttle over to the golf championship. Everyone will have to take a shuttle to the course, so why not take a shuttle closest to fine seafood dining, and the beautiful beaches of Surf City and Topsail Beach?

Our local motels and vacation rental agencies are ready to book your stay.

The Greater Topsail Area Chamber of Commerce is offering Wells Fargo Golf Championship "Any Day" tickets at a discount. So pick your day of watching the world's finest professional golfers and then pick your days to visit the many attractions in Pender County!

Pilots, if you are bringing in corporate leaders or golf buddies, fly into Henderson Field, located in Pender County. The fuel is cheaper and it's conveniently located near Interstate 40.
