Bird Island Bird Island is a 1,300 acre State Preserve barrier island that is connected to Sunset Beach and reachable by boat, walking, or biking along the beach. Bird Island is home to Loggerhead turtles and the purple sandpiper, found only on Bird Island. The shoreline, dunes, maritime forest, and marshland are also important habitats and nesting areas for various species of birds that are threatened or endangered. One can walk from the public parking area and gazebo at Sunset Beach, along the Bird Island beachfront, all the way to South Carolina. On December 4th, 2006 the North Carolina Birding Trail officially recognized the Town of Sunset Beach as Official Stop #10 on the Southeastern portion of the trail. Pamphlets about our site are available at Town Hall. You can now view and download maps and site descriptions for the coast region of the Trail from the website: www.ncbirdingtrail.org.

"The Kindred Mailbox" is on Bird Island. People post memoranda it all the time. Some sad and others inspiring. Someone keeps it stocked with a paper and pencil.

You can walk here from the Sunset Beach trail, it takes most of the day, take water and snacks. Wear sunscreen. Or bike, if the wind isn't too bad. It is a very isolated area and much, much fewer people. Feels private.
