Ya the wife was discussing that we need a cover for the trailer.
-
We stayed at the motel in the picture not bad rates for the area (around $450 for Fri and Sat night peek season) and there is a sea food buffet across the street we go to every time we go down (around $85 for 2 with drinks) There is a lot of hotels and motels most cost more than I paid you go to the shore for the beach and boardwalk the room is for sleeping and cleaning up. The amount of food places is so numerous I use Yelp to narrow it down.

How is the beach in season? Crowded? Is it kept up looking? Fine sand or coarse? Lol

I've had the same problem everytime I pull into a gas station, a restaurant, or most any parking lot, someone always has something to say about it, I've never had any negative comments at all. There is something about the uniqueness of the Spyder that just draws looks, and being bright red brings them across the parking lot from a long way off. I've thought of making a recording on my digital recording device, telling the answers to the "usual" questions, ie does it handle like a "regular" motorcycle, what is that? HD, sport bike, cruiser, touring bike, like an Ultra-Classic, or Goldwing, a Boss-Hoss, regular is waaaaay too generic. How comfortable is it? Look at it, the seat is much like a Lazyboy recliner, is it like a Harley, NO, IT is NOT!!! Why red, I want to be seen!! Etc. I am just kidding, I love to talk to folks about it, and people are all curious about it, bikers, little old ladies, kids, people that want to ride, either, again, or for the first time, them I tell that it is much more forgiving than most other bikes, or trikes, either.

I go in the morning we are up by 5 any way so we head to the beach by 9 any spot you want by the afternoon crowded. sand is fine to medium. Water is cleaner than the Jersey Shore. But definitely not as clear as the Bahamas

Kind of partial to the North Carolina beaches. Oh I mean shore for you yanks. 
Clear blue water. Clean fine sand beach. We usually go to Atlantic Beach for a day trip. My brother and his family would go to OC every year but got tired of the crowds and prices. Now he goes to Myrtle Beach every year. Says it's far better than OC. In fact, he'll be down there after the 4th. Guess I'll have to take a day trip to see him.
It's funny to see the cars with Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, Pa, and Delaware plates down here at our beaches.

I haven't been to OC in many, many years. So I can't speak to the condition. I can only go on what I'm told by family and friends. I have to say that MB has improved. But in all honesty, when we go, it's mainly for the shows. Now that my wife's uncle lives there, we'll be visiting them more often. They took us to Myrtle Beach State Park beach. That was nice. I don't swim anymore. I just go for the scenery. Last time I was in the water someone yelled great white. I realized they were referring to me. One time I was lying on the beach and they kept trying to push me back in the water.

Was there a couple years ago and impressed with it; almost no highrises, family oriented, no glitz like Myrtle and some others. Spent many vacations at Myrtle and N.Myrtle over the years and watched it outgrow itself. If you want quiet, try Wrightsville.
