Ocean Isle Beach, NC

Before the mid 1950’s Ocean Isle Beach, called Hale’s Beach by the locals, was nothing more than dunes, birds and a fishing shack. Odell Williamson purchased the island and the first full time residents moved to the island.

A lot has changed over the years. Now, Ocean Isle is a town filled with full-time residents and welcomes vacationers all year long. Many locals have set up shop along the causeway while the island continues to maintain the ability to escape from the rush of everyday life.
