Emerald Isle NC

The Town of Emerald Isle, NC wanted to create an app to help visitors find everything they need to know about the oceanfront community and empower residents to connect with the town government and local businesses. The app features a full events calendar, local business listings with interactive contact information and GPS mapping, things to do, and information about beach access (regulations, rentals, weather, surf reports, boat ramps, etc). Geared more towards residents, users can also find a town news feed and interactive forms to report concerns and crime tips. A live "pier cam" offers an on-demand video feed of the pier.
