Ocean Front Park and Pavilion — Attraction in Kure Beach

This spot only gets a four-star instead of a five-star rating due to lack of showers or anywhere to change a child or have them go to the restroom. The surf is pretty rough in this area (I literally had so many shells stuck in my swimsuit and impeded in my skin that I'm pretty sure it was an extra five or six pounds on me!), and the beach isn't quite as spacious as other places. Parking is very, very limited and expires at 5 pm, as opposed to other beaches we paid to park at and parking ended at 8 pm.

I truly wish that the town of Kure Beach would make improvement to the public restroom in the pavilion making sure that its clean will make tourist and local resident greatly...

Of community Parks I have visited over the past decade or so, this one is one of the best things for a tourist community. There are benches galore, modern, clean sanitary facilities, a ampetheter that has programs throughout the week for the children as well as community programs for all ages. The Beach is amazing and there's even a swing for this that are disabled. There isn't a bad seat at Ocean Front Park.
