Pine Knoll Shores: Memorial Park
About
Pine Knoll Shores: Memorial Park is a public beach access point managed by the town of Pine Knoll Shores, North Carolina, about 1.5 miles from the town center. It offers restrooms and parking, and a fee is charged. For comfortable beach weather, late spring through early fall works well. A nearby weather station records typical averages of about 76°F highs in May and 83°F in September, with July and August peaking around 86°F. The station sits at the coast at roughly the same elevation, so its figures should track conditions at the beach closely. Two nature trails sit close by: the Alice G. Hoffman Nature Trail, about 1.3 miles away, and the Theodore Roosevelt Nature Trail, about 1.4 miles away. For a longer outing, Oyster Point Camp and the Neusiok Trail are both a little over 5 miles off.
