Carolina Beach does not close for business after the Labor Day weekend. Our resturants are open (with the exception of Britt's Donuts which has always been seasonal). Your article implies that CB is a ghost town and little to do. That is not the case....the local residents enjoy the resturants, bars, beach and more without traffic jams, crowds of people and waiting in lines...As with every coastal area, the beach goes through seasons. You may not see as many vacationers now that the kids are back at school but now we are seeing alot more fishermen.

Carolina & Kure Beach are definitely open for business! Come down and see!
