Figure 8 Island
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Figure 8 Island is an island in North Carolina just north of Wrightsville Beach with around 441 houses on it. It is surrounded on one side by the intracoastal waterway and the other by the Atlantic Ocean. It is a private island and the only way to get onto it is via a gated bridge. This has led it to be a popular destination for many celebrities and politicians including Former Vice President Al Gore, who has rented a house there, John Edwards, who owns a house on the island, and New Jersey Devils' Martin Brodeur, who also owns a house there.
