Any place with sand and sun is the hotspot for the spring and summer season. It has been a well known fact that the best beaches in North Carolina is where the the boys are each year, and check out why! The Wrightsville Beach homes attract many Baby Boomers to the area, but there is another reason that is taking this coastal community by storm. 

From May 1, 2014 - May 4, 2014, the Wrightsville Beach Waterman Ocean Festival is the focus of the community. This sandy celebration is inviting all local residents and outside guests to enjoy an event that supports the coastal community and isn’t found in the Wilmington North Carolina relocation information. Attendees can spend a day in the sun and water with plenty of organized activities around. Check out what is in the works at the Wrightsville Beach Waterman Ocean Festival:

  • Special guest celebrities
  • Long board Classic Pro-Am Heats and semi-finals contests
  • SUP Ocean Race
  • Longboard finals
  • Surf lessons for children
  • “All Waterman” awards ceremony

All these activities are perfect for families who love the best beaches in North Carolina. Retirees will have a blast at the Wrightsville Beach Waterman Ocean Festival, while they check out the latest and greatest available Wrightsville Beach homes for sale.

For those that enjoy the cinema, the Wrightsville Beach Waterman Ocean Festival teamed up with the Surfalorous Film Festival. Surfers and film buffs will both enjoy watching the 50th Anniversary screening of Endless Summer by Bruce Brown. Wilmington North Carolina relocation information gives plenty of details about the activities of the area, but nothing quite compares to the once and a lifetime opportunity to attend the Wrightsville Beach Waterman Ocean Festival and the Surfalorous Film Festival together this year. 

After this event comes and goes, there is still more to love about the local surroundings and community of Wrightsville Beach. The location is very private with a population of a little more than 2,500. The beach itself is four miles long and is east of the major city of Wilmington, North Carolina. Known for its marinas, surfing and fishing excursions, it has earned a reputation as one of the best beaches in North Carolina

The restaurants, gourmet grocery store, beachside shops and outdoor activities draw tourists, while the quaint atmosphere and rich american history convert them to full-time residents. The Wrightsville Beach Museum of History is the source for the small town’s history. From the first built structure in 1853 to the introduction of the beach trolley in 1902, Wrightsville Beach is jampacked with historical facts that cannot be found in the usual Wilmington North Carolina relocation information.
