The town is immersed with the lull of the emerald-colored ocean to the East and the Halifax River lagoon, part of the Intercoastal waterway to the West, it encompasses miles of unspoiled beach that is expansive and one of the most idyllic beckoning beaches on the East coast. It is truly a subtropical paradise that is uncrowded, unpretentious and a hidden oasis.

With 29,040 feet of beachfront and only 5,500 residents, it has earned the motto, Life is Better Here”, incorporated just under six decades ago in April of 1960, it is a young city with the vibe of a resort and retirement community.

“Just 5.5 miles long, the city features the Atlantic Ocean on the east and the Intracoastal Waterway on the west. Residents and visitors alike take advantage of the pristine beach – whether for sunrise walks or bicycling, frolicking in the sand and surf, or enjoying the quiet solitude of the setting sun. Boats sail and cruise along the waterway, making the views from either the east or the west particularly scenic.”
