It’s that time again, parking meters are running at Wrightsville Beach

It is time to start digging into your pockets for change once again. If you are heading to Wrightsville Beach, you now have to pay to park.

The meters are up and running again in preparation for the spring season. The solar powered pay stations take one dollar bills, fives tens, and credit cards.

Paying to park is something people did not miss during the winter hiatus.”The point of paying for parking when the weather is this bad, how much fun are you going to have, is it really worth a dollar fifty to pay for parking,” asked Wrightsville Beach visitor, Zachary Saulter.

Parking costs a $1.50 per hour. The meters will operate through October first.
