If you are ever in North Carolina you have to take a trip to Sunset Beach! This is the most underrated beach town on the East Coast.
Park your car along 40th and Main, here you’ll find a walkway to get down to the beach. When you get onto the sand, turn right and walk 1.5 miles.
It is a bit of a hike from Sunset Beach over to this remote spot, but it is worth the effort if you appreciate hidden gems.
In between two benches and nestled between sand dunes is a mailbox.
For decades, the Kindred Spirit Mailbox has drawn thousands of visitors to this undeveloped and quiet beach of Bird Island. They come here to write about their hopes, dreams, fears and prayers. Inside you’ll find notebooks and pens so visitors can write down their thoughts. The best part is that you can be as anonymous as you want.
The book Every Breath by Nicolas Sparks, which is based around this lonely mailbox, is what inspired my trip here. I highly suggest reading this book before visiting.
Truly a special place.
