Welcome to Bald Head Association

Bald Head Association (BHA) is Bald Head Island's largest property owners' association, representing approximately 2,000 members. Bald Head Island (BHI) is a barrier island off the North Carolina coast and poses unique situations for sustainably living among its ecologically connected beach/forest/marsh environments.

Life on BHI
Life on Bald Head Island offers something truly unique. Surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and Cape Fear River, our island community thrives on connection, care, and a shared appreciation for this special place. Whether you live here full-time, part-time, or visit often, explore resources and stories that help you make the most of island life. We are grateful to the photographers who contributted to our website. Photos and names are here.

Bald Head Island Transportation Authority Forum
As with any island community, conversations and speculation about our transportation system are never far away — from the ferry and trams to the barge operation and parking at Deep Point. But what is really happening behind the scenes, and what role does the Transportation Authority play in shaping the future of island transportation?

Transportation Authority Vice-Chair Rex Cowdry hosted a community briefing and provided an overview of Bald Head Island’s transportation system, including how we arrived at the current structure and two potential paths forward for this essential part of island life.
