The southern-most of North Carolina's Brunswick Islands, Sunset Beach is only three miles long but it is everything that a family beach should be. As you travel from the mainland, over the one lane pontoon bridge, across the calm salt marsh, you'll find yourself entering a relaxed and quiet world of Southern coastal living.

Imagine a day spent browsing through the specialty shops, teeing off at one of the many nearby championship golf courses or launching your boat for a day at sea. Follow this up with a great meal at one of the many fine restaurants in the area, or by picnicking on your deck while watching the waves roll in.
