Sunset Beach, North Carolina… one of the 21 nicest beaches in the world, according to National Geographic. This three-mile island is the southernmost Brunswick County Beach, known as THE family beach destination. It truly is everything you can imagine for the perfect family reunion beach trip, from the picture-perfect rental view to all-day access to one of the nicest beaches and just a bike ride along the island for some ice cream.
Let’s dive into what it is like when you take a trip to Sunset Beach, North Carolina.
Sunset Beach, North Carolina, is great for many to visit, but it does have some limitations on accessibility.
First, there are only two handicap-accessible beach access points, and it can be tough to get a parking spot nearby if you aren’t staying at a house around that point. The first access point is immediately when you access the island at the pier, a common tourist spot. The other is if you turn right and head to the end of the island to park near 40th Street, which is the closest access point for the Kindred Spirit Mailbox.
Second, the places to stay on the island are limited to rentals, private properties, or one tiny hotel near the pier. Remember your party size and how close you want to be to the island.
So, as I just mentioned, there are only a few options to stay on the island. There are plenty of options to stay off the island, but you must drive and find parking if you wish to access the beach.
There are only a handful of activities to do on the island, but there are some fun nearby activities that will be fun for the whole family.
