Working At The Beach

Ocean Isle Beach is a great place to work, especially during the summer months. There is never a dull moment here at the beach as soon as schools let out. Many sit behind a desk all summer just waiting for that short vacation; I say why wait for that short getaway when I can "work" at my favorite vacation destination all summer long.


The sun, the sand and the swimsuits; who wouldn't want to work at the beach? Ever since I was younger I have enjoyed going on vacation with the family every summer to the beach. There is nothing quite like it. When I left home for college I moved to the Myrtle Beach area so I could enjoy the beach all year long.


I've been living at the beach for about three and a half years now and it never gets boring, especially with my new job here at Sunset Properties. It's hard to describe the the everyday excitement that one encounters while working at Ocean Isle Beach, and the craziness that occurs when working on a busy Saturday here. But all in all there is no other place that I would rather be than here working at Ocean Isle Beach.

We're on track for our beach renourishment again this year. The project will go out for bid on July 15 with a bid opening of August 13 and contract award by end of September. The Army Corps of Engineers estimates 500,000 cubic yards of sand will be pumped for this project with 350,000 cubic yards actually being placed on the beach strand.
