Wrightsville Beach is located in North Carolina in the United States. It consists of a large beach island and an inner island, as well as various pockets of property on the mainland. Unfortunately, the area is prone to hurricane damage, the recent most being in 2018. However, this only proves the resilience of the residents in the area as they continue to rebuild and repair their land and buildings. The beach itself is quite well maintained, as a number of community projects ensure that it is kept clean and does not get damaged by frequent human presence. It also has a few parks which seek to maximize leisure opportunities to improve the well being of the community. Visit and explore this quaint seaside town and discover some of the best things to do in Wrightsville Beach.
