Waters Bay Homes for Sale | Surf City

Waters Bay leans toward the sound side of Surf City, which makes it a natural stop for buyers who came to Surf City real estate for the water but not necessarily for the surf.

Why the sound side appeals

  • Calmer water for kayaks, paddleboards, and small boats
  • Direct reach to the Intracoastal Waterway and Topsail Sound
  • Soundside Park in town, with a kayak launch and summer concerts
  • Sunset exposure over the mainland instead of sunrise over the Atlantic
  • Ocean access still minutes away by car or bike

Compare it against the town's full waterfront inventory before you decide which side of the island you want.
