Airlie Gardens
Wilmington, USA


Airlie Gardens is a 67-acre botanical sanctuary situated just outside downtown Wilmington, showcasing a diverse array of plants, flowers, and historical features, including a grand live oak estimated to be over 400 years old. The gardens were established in the 1900s and offer scenic walking paths, tranquil ponds, and a beautiful butterfly house.
Plan to spend at least a couple of hours to take in the serene landscapes and seasonal blooms. Spring is particularly lovely with azaleas in full bloom, while fall brings a rich tapestry of colors. The nearby Wrightsville Beach provides a refreshing contrast if you’re looking for coastal views.
