The
Town of Oak Island was formed in 1999 when the towns
of Long Beach and Yaupon Beach consolidated. This consolidation
gave it the distinction of the most populated incorporated
town in Brunswick County. Although the largest Town
in the County, a small town atmosphere is enjoyed by
its residents. The foundation of this beach community
has always been public access — consider the over
52 public beach accesses (most with parking), two public
boat ramps, several areas to put in canoes and kayaks,
an extensive sidewalk system for bikes and pedestrians
to enjoy, recreation trails, numerous parks and playgrounds,
a full service parks and recreation department, and
youth friendly facilities such as the newly completed
skate board park. Programs geared toward senior citizens
are located
at the Parks & Recreation Department and the Oak
Island Senior Citizens Center. The Town of Oak Island
has extended is boundaries to include the mainland areas
along Long Beach Road. This is the area where large
grocery, department stores, and fast food restaurants
can be found.
