The beach offers excellent public access with no fees. There is ample parking, convenient utilities and shower facilities, and a wheelchair-friendly picnic table located under a gazebo at the dunes. It was perfect for my needs as I was only interested in taking some pictures of the pier. However, I was surprised to find out that they charge $15 for parking.

We had a great time at this beach access point while waiting for NC 12 to open. The restroom was clean and there was plenty of parking available. Additionally, the walkway with a gazebo was a nice touch. The beach itself had golden fine sand, which made for a pleasant experience.
