Byrd Street Beach Access Kitty Hawk Outer Banks
Byrd Street Beach Access Summary
In your rush to the beach this summer, don't trample the dune plants. American beach grass, wormwood, and eastern cottonwood are just some of the plants that anchor and stabilize our oceanfront dunes. These dunes offer the first line of defense against wave action. If dunes are destroyed or breached, then what lies behind them, be it wetland or a oceanfront home, is vulnerable to the water's energy. Although dune plants tolerate harsh beach conditions-wind, salt spray, overwash of waves, scarce nutrients, limited fresh water, intense sunlight and extremes of hot and cold they can't withstand the pounding of feet and vehicles. To cross the dunes, please use crosswalks and designated beach access areas. Using proper beach accesses will be enforced.
