Sunset Beach, NC listed as #1 Most Beautiful Places On The North Carolina Coast

“Flanked by two vacation powerhouses, Wilmington and Myrtle Beach, the six beaches that make up the Brunswick Islands are a welcome escape. Places like Oak Island, Bald Head Island, and Sunset Beach each offer a small-town feel with beaches every bit as beautiful as its more well-known neighbors. The entire stretch of oceanfront communities is stunning to say the least, but one sight you can’t miss is the Kindred Spirit Mailbox at Sunset Beach. The mailbox, which surprisingly pops up from a landscape of sugar-white sand and sea oats swaying in the wind, creates a scene straight from a movie.”
