A Spirited Adventure

Raleigh resident Sandi Gorham pens her thoughts and reads what others have written in one of several journals kept in the Kindred Spirit Mailbox at the end of Sunset Beach. For more than 30 years, thousands of visitors have made the 30-minute trek to the community mailbox to read and write their thoughts, hopes and dreams. The mailbox was the inspiration behind Nicholas Sparks’ novel "Every Breath."

For generations, beachgoers have been visiting North Carolina’s Brunswick Islands, creating lifelong memories filled with sun, sand, and seafood. Wander the shores of Caswell Beach, Holden Beach, Sunset Beach, Ocean Isle Beach, Oak Island and Bald Head Island, or quiet your rumbling stomach in Calabash or Southport.

Whatever’s on your vacation menu, there’s always plenty to do. For more information about the Brunswick Islands and their attractions, visit ncbrunswick.com.
