Please exercise good judgment when swimming in the ocean. Our beach is patrolled during the day, but it is not guarded. The Town of Sunset Beach has instituted these rules (ordinances) primarily to protect the environment and to add to your enjoyment and safety while you are visiting with us. If you dig holes in the sand, please refill the sand to prevent visitors from being hurt and to ensure that turtles may come ashore without danger of falling in the hole.Sleeping or camping on the beach strand after dark is not allowed.All vehicular traffic is prohibited from the beach strand.Bonfires, charcoal and gas grills are NOT ALLOWED ON THE BEACH or within ten (10) feet of a residence as they may cause fires.This also ensures safe walking on our beautiful shore at night. Because we are a turtle sanctuary, all personal property must be removed from the beach strand by 7:00 pm and not returned until 7:00 am each day so that turtles can come ashore unobstructed.Emergency vehicles must be able to access the strand. Please do not block the public accesses to the beach.Surfing is not permitted from 5th Street to 32nd Street from May 1st - October 31st and from 1st Street to 27th Street from November 1st - April 30th.For everyone's safety, do not launch or recover motorized watercraft from the beach.For your safety, glass containers are not permitted. Use only plastic containers or cans on the beach.Trash receptacles are conveniently located for your use. Fireworks and laser pointers are not permitted.It's no fun to have wet, sandy dogs shaking on you while you are sunbathing, and for health and safety issues, we ask that you please remove any feces promptly and deposit them in the trash receptacles.From the Friday before Memorial Day through Labor Day, dogs are not allowed on the beach from 9 am through 6 pm.Dogs must be on a leash no longer than 10 feet in length at all times.While we welcome your dog joining you on our beach, we do have rules about when and under what circumstances. ![]()
