Enjoy a self-guided tour of the World War II Battleship NORTH CAROLINA, now a floating museum and memorial moored across from downtown Wilmington. Placards posted provide information on the ship's history in the Pacific Theatre during the war years, while displays of photographs and uniforms help visitors explore the individual histories of men who served on NORTH CAROLINA's decks during dangerous days in the 1940's. Allow for two hours to thoroughly take in this battleship.
