Find vacation rentals by owner en Atlantic Beach, North Carolina. While today the well known Atlantic Beach thrives as a tourist destination and commercial beach resort, the town began as nothing more than a vision. The oldest of the five beach communities scattered along the 30 mile stretch of Bogue Banks, Atlantic Beach started as a dream in the mind of Appleton Oaksmith, a Carteret County local. In the late 1800's, the creation of a beach pavilion began to attract wealthy guests to the area. From those initial vacationers, grew a huge commercial industry of tourism that populates and provides monetary support to the area as a whole. This vacation industry has developed a huge lodging infrastructure such as hotels, Atlantic Beach vacation rentals, and Bed & Breakfasts.
