For nature lovers, head to Bird Island, located between the town of Sunset Beach and the Little River Inlet in South Carolina. It is the only remaining undeveloped barrier island system in Brunswick County and one of the few protected islands in the mid-Atlantic region. You'll find over 1,000 acres of salt marsh, miles of beautiful sandy beaches and high dunes, and plenty of birds, animals, and plant species.Â
Public access is primarily via the ocean beach on the Sunset Beach side, while boats may land on the beach associated with Little River Inlet on the South Carolina side.
