Ramp and Floating Docks next to the new Sunset Beach Bridge. NC
Wildlife Resources Commission built the ramp using its funds along with
some from the Town of Sunset Beach and Brunswick County. To avoid disturbing
the Waterway more than the entrance to the old bridge did for 50 year,
the ramp was built upon the footprint of the roadway leading to the old
bridge. The parking lot has 26 spaces for vehicles with trailers. The
Boat Ramp and an adjacent Fishing Pier were dedicated 06/29/12.

This is the stationary
pier on the right side. It is L-shaped and will provide marvelous access
to fishing in the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway -- something never had
before at Sunset Beach.
These are the walls
lining the boat ramp. A piece of equipment was on a barge at the end when
I was taking pictures.
This is the boat
ramp. Construction has not been completed. An L-shaped floating dock will
be built on the right.
