Long Beach area Public Beach Access Points

Long Beach, Yaupon Beach and Caswell Beach are on Oak Island about 7 miles from Southport. Oak Island has 8 miles of beach on the Atlantic Ocean. Because it faces south the surf is usually quiet and the tides more moderate.  Long Beach has two piers and public launch facilities. There is a regional public beach access point on the Atlantic Ocean side of the island right at Long Beach. From NC-211 take NC-133 to Oak Island.  At the end of NC-133 turn right, proceed to Long Beach and the regional beach access will be on your left. For accommodations, campgrounds, activities and other facilities information,

Brunswick Islands area BOAT RAMPS
There are over a third of a million boats registered in Carolina. Most find their way to our fabulous waterways via boat ramps. Unfortunately there is no single source revealing the locations of these ramps. We are working with the Wildlife Commissions to build a list which will include directions to help you find these ramps. This directory will be a-building for some time to come! We would certainly appreciate any information our visitors can e-mail us - to: editor@Carolina-Now.com
