Head to one of the many beautiful parks in Brunswick County. Many have walking trails, playgrounds, and picnic shelters available. I love taking my grandchildren to the Ocean Isle Beach Park.

Although not located in Brunswick County, Vereen Gardens is a gorgeous park with beautiful trails. If you head south just over the South Carolina line, you’ll find this beautiful park located right on the Intracoastal waterway.
