Near the tip of southeastern North Carolina, a short distance from the South Carolina border lies the seaside town of Ocean Isle Beach. Ocean Isle is a golf and fishing paradise. There are literally hundreds of golf courses within a 30 to 40-minute radius, and a regular schedule of fishing tournaments throughout the peak season. In addition to swimming and boating, Ocean Isle is the home to the Museum of Coastal Carolina and the Ingram Planetarium, where families can enjoy lectures, audio visual programs and exhibits about the marine environment and the heavens. There are plenty of retail outlets of all types in nearby Shallotte and an offering of nice restaurants in Calabash and just across the border in Little River, South Carolina.
Ocean Isle lately presents a new face to the world, with a new bridge to the isle, a new 58-acre park and a newly restored award winning beach all completed within the last few years. The park offers a host of amenities including lighted tennis courts, biking trails, ball parks, an amphitheater and festival grounds. Those who own their own plane can fly into Ocean Isle airport and be in their homes minutes after touch down.

With a permanent population of only 530, Ocean Isle is largely populated by vacationers or owners of second homes. Beach cottages, two and three story homes and condominiums are available. Housing prices are typically not as expensive as on Wrightsville Beach or Bald Head Island, but its proximity to the ocean makes homes here more expensive generally than in other parts of Brunswick County. The combined town and county property tax rates for Ocean Isle Beach are $0.39 per $100 of valuation. (Personal property such as autos, trucks, boats, aircraft, motor homes, business assets, etc are taxed at the same rate as real property.)
