Ocean Isle Beach Received the Best Restored Beach Award in 2008 from the American Shore and Beach Preservation Association. After hurricane Hugo devastated the area in 1989, the town lobbied for federal funding to restore and preserve the beach and created deeper channels for boaters. This town won the award due to its economic and ecological benefits to the beach, it’s short and long-term success of the restoration projects and the challenges each community overcame during the course of the project.
