Wilmington is about to get the national spotlight! A brand-new television series, Coastal Connection – Wilmington, makes its debut tonight, August 27th, shining a light on the lifestyle, culture, and real estate that make our region such a special place to call home.
The show is part of the American Dream TV Network, a nationally syndicated series designed to highlight communities where people truly love to live, work, and play. Wilmington now takes center stage, with local hosts Rainey Wallace of Intracoastal Realty’s Valentine-Wallace Group and Chelsea Winstead of Southern Trust Mortgage guiding viewers through some of the best our area has to offer.
In the first episode, filmed at Wrightsville Beach, audiences will get a taste of everything from luxury homes and waterfront properties to local hangouts and favorite dining spots. Expect property tours ranging from charming beach condos to multi-million-dollar retreats, along with features on beloved local businesses, coastal recreation, and even the people who make this community thrive.
You can catch the premiere this morning at 7 a.m. on the Travel Channel, with additional airings scheduled on WWAY this weekend, and on streaming platforms like Apple TV, Amazon Fire, and Roku.
For those of us lucky enough to live here — or those considering making Wilmington home — this show is yet another reminder of why our city continues to grow in popularity. From its rich culture and active lifestyle to an ever-evolving real estate market, Wilmington truly is a coastal community with heart.
