Brunswick Beaches Vacation Guide

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


Serving All Major Brunswick County Beaches


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


Don't miss out on seeing the local wildlife—herons, egrets, and even dolphins—from the best seat in the house: right on the water.

We all know the struggle. You are on vacation to relax, but your beach day starts with a heavy workout: dragging flimsy chairs, wrestling with a cheap umbrella that blows away in the wind, and hauling gear over the dunes.


Beach Chairs & Umbrellas Made Easy


We are proud to highlight our Daily Beach Setup Service. Imagine walking onto the sand and finding your spot already waiting for you—perfectly positioned, shady, and comfortable. When you're done? You just walk away. We handle the heavy lifting so you can handle the relaxing.


Experience Resort-Style Luxury on the Sand


We don't use standard camping chairs. We have upgraded the experience with our signature "Resort Chairs."


These are high-back, premium chairs crafted from sturdy oak and durable canvas. They offer superior support and that classic, timeless beach look. Paired with our matching 8-foot diameter canvas umbrellas (also featuring solid oak poles), you get a massive footprint of shade that stays secure in the breeze.


Your Schedule, Your Way: Flexible Setup & Pickup


One size does not fit all when it comes to beach days. Some families are "early birds" hoping to catch the sunrise, while others want to stay late to watch the sunset.


That is why we let you choose your hours.


When you book, you select your preferred Setup Time in the morning and Pickup Time in the evening.

  • Want the prime morning hours? Select an earlier setup time (service fee applies).

  • Want to stay later? Select a later pickup time (service fee applies).

  • Standard hours: Enjoy our standard window for the base rate.


You are in control of your day, ensuring your chairs are ready exactly when you arrive.


Upgrade Your Spot with Premium Add-Ons


Want to turn your setup into a full private oasis? We offer exclusive add-ons to enhance your comfort and fun:

  • The Leg Rest: A matching oak and canvas extension that attaches to your Resort Chair, letting you prop your feet up for a full nap mode.

  • Umbrella Table: A convenient table that attaches to the umbrella pole. It includes cup holders to keep your drinks sand-free and within reach.

  • Beach Games: Keep the family entertained with our regulation Corn Hole boards or a classic Bocce Ball set.

Dates fill up fast, especially during peak season. Don't spend another vacation acting as a pack mule. Let us build your perfect beach site for you.

If you are looking for the absolute best place to kayak or paddleboard on Oak Island, look no further than The Point. Located at the far west end of the island (at the end of Kings Lynn Dr.), this spot offers breathtaking views, calm waters, and access to uninhabited islands.


But there is one challenge: getting your gear there. Parking is tight, and carrying a heavy kayak from a rental house to the water is exhausting.


That is why Mr. Beach Rentals offers our exclusive "Meet-Up" Rental Service. We bring the kayaks and SUPs directly to the water's edge for you.


How the "Meet-Up" Service Works


You don't need a roof rack, and you don't need to haul heavy equipment. We make it effortless:

  1. Book Online: Select your preferred time slot online. (Note: Booking in advance is required. We only drive the truck out if we have reservations!)

  2. Meet Us There: Drive or bike to The Point (6960 Kings Lynn Dr.) at your scheduled time.

  3. Get Paddling: Our staff will have your equipment ready by the water, give you a quick briefing on the area, and send you on your way.

  4. Return: When your rental time is up, just bring the gear back to us at the shoreline and head home.


Why We Love The Point


This is Mr. Beach Rentals' favorite spot on the entire island, whether we are kayaking or just walking the dog.


While the landscape shifts with the tides, a large sandbar protects this area from the rough waves of the Intracoastal Waterway and the ocean. This makes it an excellent spot for beginners or families.


Adventures Just a Paddle Away:

  • Sheep Island: Just a short 100-yard paddle across the water. It is about a mile long and perfect for beaching the kayak to collect shells.

  • Horse Island: Paddle along the tall grasses and enjoy the quiet nature.

  • Birdwatching & Wildlife: The salt marsh ecosystem is alive with activity. Keep your eyes peeled for Great Blue Herons standing like statues in the grass, Great Egrets wading in the shallows, and Ospreys hunting from above. Because the water is calmer here, it is also the best place on Oak Island to potentially see dolphins surfacing nearby without having to venture into the open ocean.


Important Logistics: Parking & Schedule


Parking: The Point is popular! Parking is limited and is often unavailable on weekends. We highly recommend riding your bike if possible—there is a place to lock them up right by the sand. There are also two porta-potties and a foot-washing station for your convenience.


Rental Times: We offer flexible 2-hour rental blocks, perfect for a paddle and picnic. Want to stay out longer? No problem. We also offer 4-hour and 6-hour blocks if you want to spend the whole day fishing or exploring the islands.


Please check our live booking calendar for exact availability as times change with the season.

Top Kayak Spots on Oak Island: The Point & Davis Canal


While The Point is our personal favorite for its stunning views of the inlet and access to Sheep Island, it isn't the only launch on Oak Island. We have a whole page on our site dedicated to awesome launch sites.


If you are looking for a long, straight paddle through the heart of the island's salt marshes, the Davis Canal is another top-tier choice we can meet you at. It offers miles of protected water that is perfect for windy days when the open inlet might be too choppy.
