About this property
Aquarium #159 - Soundfront Home on Wrightsville Beach w/ Private Dock!
Welcome to Aquarium #159, a spacious soundfront retreat on the peaceful South Lumina side of Wrightsville Beach — truly a boater’s paradise. This rare gem offers spectacular sound and ocean views from four expansive decks, a private deep-water boat slip and dock with gazebo on Banks Channel, and a quiet, secluded beach at low tide. Beach access is only a 5-minute walk away, making it easy to enjoy both the sound and the sea.
Perfectly positioned for relaxation and recreation, guests can walk to Crystal Pier, Oceanic Restaurant, Sundays Café, and nearby surf shops (just 0.5 miles away). Entertainment options abound with a ping pong table, foosball, air hockey, video games, board games, and plenty of beach and water toys for endless fun.
