Points East Coastal Drive

The Points East Coastal Drive has more than 50 beaches so close to one another you'd swear it is just one beach; not the case as each is unique. Big waves - gotta ‘em. Quiet coves – we have those too. And, did we mention our beaches have the warmest waters north of the Carolinas?
