FAA WATERCOLOR MARK DOES NOT APPEAR ON FINAL SALES
While vacationing in Jacksonville, North Carolina I went with my son and his wife to a very quiet vacation area near Wilmington, North Carolina called Emerald Isle. I asked my son where were we going and he said to a beach that they go to all of the time that is very clean and never crowded called Indian Beach. When we arrived I was shocked there was no one on the beach as there was a row of vacation homes so most people did not come out to the beach until 2:00 or 3:00 pm since they only had to turn around and walk back into their homes to get cleaned up. For us it was a good hour ride away. But it was worth it as the sand was a a beautiful clean white and the ocean you could see your feet in. The waves were excellent for body surfing, boogey boarding or surfing as the waves started out far and would climb up high and carry you all the way to shore. On the second day the waves were not as friendly as they were on the first day still giving a good ride into shore but they were also some that were rising quickly then curling under leaving you flying through the air. This photo was taken on my first day at Indian Beach as we were leaving and we had just climbed two flights of wooden stairs to get to the parking lot. Once on top of the stairs I could see everything so clearly that I described above and some people where starting to come out and setting up their umbrellas for the day. But this scenic shot was breathtaking as it was so clear and the clarity was fantastic.
