📰 News we're reading

• This North Carolina Beach Has Such Clear Water And Pale Sand, It Feels Like The Caribbean (takingthekids.com) — Emerald Isle offers more than an oceanfront beach day, with soundside trails at Emerald Isle Woods Park and shell hunting at The Point. This visitor guide connects those quieter outings with familiar stops such as Bogue Inlet Pier, while reminding beachgoers that strong inlet currents make The Point unsuitable for swimming.
