🛟 Public Service Message 🛟
The emergency services of Oak Island are requesting the public to kindly avoid positioning your beach setups in the emergency access locations throughout the Island.
Pictured here is 49th street access, the primary access for emergency Ocean Rescue jet ski and Water Rescue boat launches.
Blocking this causes extensive delay in moving your camp when minutes matter in a successful rescue.
Please keep these accesses open throughout the island. They are all conspicuously marked with signage.
Thank you for your understanding. 🛟
