The Best Paddle Spot on Oak Island: Meet Us at "The Point"

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.

The Ultimate Guide to Oak Island Beach Rentals: You Booked the House, Now Book the Fun

You have secured the perfect vacation home on Oak Island. You have your check-in date, and you are counting down the days. But have you thought about what happens when you actually hit the sand?

Many visitors arrive only to realize their rental house doesn't have bikes, the "provided" beach chairs are broken, and the grill is a rusty mess.

That is where Mr. Beach Rentals comes in.

A dream vacation requires more than just a place to sleep—it requires the right gear. We specialize in outfitting your trip with everything you need to play. Whether you need bikes to cruise the coast, kayaks for the canal, or chairs for the sand, we deliver the fun directly to your doorstep.

1. Beach Gear & Luxury Setup Services

Don't spend your first hour on the island shopping for cheap chairs at the grocery store. We deliver high-quality, professional-grade equipment directly to your door.

• The Gear: We rent solid oak resort style chairs with high backs, matching 8-foot canvas umbrellas, and beach carts to haul it all.

• The Service: Want to feel like royalty? Check out our Daily Beach Setup Service where we set up your chairs and umbrellas for you every morning and pack them away in the evening.

• The Fun: Take your beach day to the next level with bocce ball sets or our homemade regulation Cornhole Boards. Whether you are hosting a family tournament or just need to keep the kids entertained, these add-ons turn a standard beach trip into a party.

2. Bicycles & Electric Cruisers

Oak Island is famous for being bike-friendly. With miles of flat roads and designated paths along Beach Drive and the scenic West End, biking is the best way to get around.

• Standard Bikes: We have sizes for men, women, and children (plus trailers and child seats for toddlers).

• Electric Bikes: Want to explore further with less effort? Try our new Electric Beach Cruisers to zip from the Oak Island Pier to the Point without breaking a sweat.

3. Kayaks & Watersports

You can't come to Oak Island without getting on the water. Whether you want to surf the ocean waves or paddle the calm marshes, we have the fleet for you.

• Delivery: We deliver Single and Tandem Kayaks, Standup Paddle Boards (SUPs), and Surfboards to your rental home for the week.

• Meet-Up Service: Don't want to haul the gear? We can meet you directly at The Point or the Davis Canal with the equipment ready to go.

4. Home Essentials: Grills & Baby Gear

Sometimes the "fully stocked" kitchen in a vacation rental is anything but. Or maybe you find it frustrating to plan a family cookout only to find a rusted, dirty charcoal grill in the backyard

• Grilling: We deliver clean, 4-Burner Gas Grills with a full propane tank included, so you can host the ultimate seafood boil or burger night. Add on grill tools for a complete grilling experience!

• Baby Gear: Save trunk space by renting Pack-N-Plays and other essentials from us.

5. Accessible Beach Wheelchairs

We believe the beach should be accessible to everyone. If a member of your party has mobility challenges, standard thin-tired wheelchairs won't work on the sand.

• The Solution: We rent specialized Beach Wheelchairs with large balloon tires that glide over soft or hard sand. We offer Free Delivery to Oak Island and Caswell Beach to ensure the whole family can sit by the water together.

Why Choose Mr. Beach Rentals on Oak Island?

We are locals. We know the tides, the winds, and the best hidden spots on the island. When you book with us, you aren't just renting an item; you are upgrading your entire vacation.

• Water Sports: Kayaks, Standup Paddle Boards (SUPs), and Surfboards.

Daily Beach Setup Service

For the ultimate luxury experience, go for our daily setup service. We handle the heavy lifting by setting up our premium oak "Resort Chairs" and 8-foot canvas umbrellas for you every morning and packing them away every evening. You even get to choose the specific setup and pickup times that fit your schedule, ensuring your spot is ready the moment you hit the sand.

Why Rent Instead of Buy?

Cheap chairs from the grocery store often break after a few days, and hauling bikes on a rack can damage your vehicle. renting from Mr. Beach Rentals ensures you are using high-quality, professional-grade equipment that is maintained and cleaned after every use.
