IF YOU ARE THE KIND OF PERSON WHO D RATHER PADDLE A CANOE THAT CAREEN ABOUT ON A JET SKI- THERE S A VACATION DESTINATION DESIGNED WITH YOU IN MIND. AND EVEN THOUGH YOU DON T HAVE TO TRAVEL HALFWAY AROUND THE WORLD TO GET THERE- IT IS AN EXTRAORDINARY DEPARTURE. BARELY TWO NAUTICAL MILES OFF THE SOUTHEASTERN TIP OF NORTH CAROLINA IS A SEMITROPICAL ISLAND WITH A LIFESTYLE AS REFRESHENGLY NOVEL AS ITS NAME- BALD HEAD ISLAND. BUT THE DISTANCE IS MEASURED IN MORE THAN MILES. STEEPED IN HISTORY- FLAVORED WITH LEGENDS- AND BRIMMING WITH NATURAL BEAUTY- IT S ABOUT AS FAR REMOVED AS YOU CAN GET WITHOUT A PASSPORT. WITH VIEWS THAT STRETCH FROM SUNRISE TO SUNSET- OVER DUNES AND BEACH- RIVER AND OCEAN- MARITIME FOREST AND A VAST SALT MARSH- IT S A SETTING THAT BLURS THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN FACT AND FANTASY. AS A MATTER OF FACT- HOLLYWOOD HAS DISCOVERED THIS READY-MADE MOVIE SET OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS- AND IT ISN T UNCOMMON TO SEE THE OCCASIONAL CELEBRITY TOOLING ABOUT THE ISLAND ON A BICYCLE OR AN ELECTRIC CART.
