Brunswick Beaches Vacation Guide

Travel Tips for Oak Island, Ocean Isle, Sunset Beach & Holden Beach

Oak Island isn't just a vacation destination to us; it's our home. Since our beginning as paddleOKI back in 2014, we have been dedicated to helping families make memories on these beaches.


Whether you are staying near the Oak Island Pier, watching the ships pass at Caswell Beach, or relaxing on the quiet West End, we are your neighbors—and we have the gear you need to upgrade your vacation.


The "Home Field" Advantage: Daily Delivery


While we serve the entire Brunswick County coast with weekly rentals, Oak Island and Caswell Beach get special perks.


Because our warehouse is right here, we offer flexible Daily Delivery options in addition to our standard weekly rentals.

  • Need a kayak just for Tuesday? We can do that.

  • Want bikes for a long weekend? No problem.

  • Need an extra chair because the cousins decided to visit last minute? We’re on it.


Explore the Davis Canal and Marshes


Oak Island is unique because of the beautiful Davis Canal and the winding salt marshes. It is one of the best places in North Carolina for paddling.


We deliver Single and Tandem Kayaks as well as Standup Paddle Boards (SUPs) directly to your rental home. If you are staying on a canal-front property, you can launch right from your backyard dock. If you are ocean-side, we can help you find the nearest launch points to see the herons, egrets, and turtles that call the island home.


Cruise Middleton Park and the Beach Road


With miles of flat, paved roads and designated bike paths along Beach Drive, Oak Island is made for cycling. Skip the traffic and rent our Fat Tire Bicycles or our Electric Beach Cruisers. It’s the perfect way to grab morning donuts, head to Middleton Park for the splash pad, or just feel the ocean breeze. We have sizes for kids and adults, plus cargo trailers to haul the little ones.


The Ultimate Beach Day Setup


Don't spend your vacation hauling heavy gear over the dunes. We offer everything you need for comfort:

  • Resort-Style Chairs: High-back oak and canvas chairs for maximum support.

  • Large Umbrellas: 8-foot canvas umbrellas for serious shade.

  • Beach Wheelchairs: Beach Wheelchairs feature balloon tires for accessibility on the soft sand.

  • Setup Service: Want total luxury? Ask about our Daily Beach Setup Service where we set up and break down your chairs and umbrellas for you every day.

One of the reasons our customers love Mr. Beach Rentals is the quality of our equipment. We pride ourselves on offering a fleet that looks fresh, runs smoothly, and performs perfectly.


To keep our standards high, we constantly rotate our inventory. This means we sell a large percentage of our "retired" equipment every year to make room for brand-new items.


This is your chance to own professional-grade beach gear at a fraction of the retail price.


Why Buy Used Gear from Mr. Beach Rentals?


When you buy a used kayak or bike from a private seller online, you never really know what you are getting.


When you buy from us, you are buying equipment that has been cared for by professionals.


We have multiple mechanics on staff who maintain our fleet year-round. We lubricate chains, check cables, and inspect hulls regularly.

  • The Condition: We list are equipment in various conditions (New, Like New, Excellent, Good, Fair, Working). You choose exactly what you what! We sell most of our items after a summer of love by vacationers. So on the best deals, expect cosmetic scratches, sun fading, or small dings.

  • The Performance: While they may show signs of use, they are mechanically sound and ready for many more years of fun.


Shop our Used Equipment Year-Round


While we call it our "End of Season" sale, you don't have to wait until October to grab a deal. We list equipment for sale throughout the year as we cycle through our inventory. August & September are the best time as nearly everything can be found up for grabs – frist come, first serve


Our online shop is updated regularly with:

  • Watersports: Kayaks (Single & Tandem) and Standup Paddle Boards.

  • Cycling: Beach Cruisers and E-Bikes for the whole family.

  • Beach Gear: High-quality chairs and umbrellas.


Free Delivery or Warehouse Pickup


We make buying easy. If you are local to our service area, we offer Free Delivery on your purchased equipment—no need to figure out how to stuff a 12-foot kayak into a sedan.


Prefer to see it before you buy? You are welcome to visit our warehouse to inspect the gear in person.

  • Important: Warehouse visits are by Appointment Only. Please contact us to schedule a time so a team member can be there to help you.

Used Bikes & Other Equipment for Sale at Oak Island & Holden Beach

The beaches of Brunswick County offer more than just sand and surf. Between the calm Intracoastal Waterway, winding salt marsh creeks, and beautiful canals, our area is a paddler's paradise.


But let’s face it: bringing your own kayak on vacation is a hassle, and trying to strap a rental kayak to the roof of a car without a rack is a nightmare.


At Mr. Beach Rentals, we make it easy. We specialize in Kayak Rental Delivery, bringing the adventure directly to your vacation home rental.


No Roof Racks Required: We Deliver to You


The biggest barrier to kayaking on vacation is transportation. That is why we bring the fleet to you. Whether you are staying oceanfront or sound-side, we deliver your kayaks directly to your door.


This means you can launch right from your private dock, a nearby public access, or just keep them at the house for whenever the mood strikes. When your vacation is over, we swing by and pick them up.


Single and Tandem Kayaks Available


We offer a variety of high-quality sit-on-top kayaks and sit-inside kayaks designed for stability and safety. These are perfect for beginners exploring the marshes or experienced paddlers looking for a workout.

  • Single Kayaks: Perfect for solo explorers looking for some peace and quiet on the water.

  • Tandem (Double) Kayaks: The best choice for couples, or for a parent paddling with a child.


Safety and Gear Included


We take safety seriously. Every kayak rental comes with everything you need to get on the water immediately and safely:

  • Lightweight Paddles: Included with every boat.

  • Life Vests (PFDs): We provide properly fitting safety vests for all renters.

We don't just serve one island. We are proud to offer our kayak delivery service to vacationers across the Brunswick County coast, including:
