To Beach or Not to Beach

When you think of Sunset and Ocean Isle Beach, the first thing that comes to mind is sitting back on a beautiful sandy beach and swimming in the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean. However, beaches are not the only thing that our amazing area has to offer! Here are ten things that you can experience while visiting Sunset and Ocean Isle Beach besides the beach:

The Swamp Park


Welcome to The Swamp Park & Outdoor Center, located 45 minutes South of Wilmington NC and 35 Minutes North of Myrtle Beach on HWY 17.

Welcome to Ocean Isle Mini Golf! Come on in and explore their 18-hole course, with deliciously flavored soft-serve, a pond with fish, and tree shade to block the Carolina HEAT. We are located less than 5 minutes off the island at 6391 Beach Drive.
