Beach Book Mart

Beach Book Mart is an independent bookstore located at 1010 W Fort Macon Rd in Atlantic Beach, North Carolina, on the state's Crystal Coast. It presents itself as "Your Book Store at the Beach," a locally oriented shop serving residents and vacationers in a coastal resort community. The store carries a large selection of books, with an emphasis on beach reads, local North Carolina titles, and best sellers. Beyond standard bookselling, it stocks art supplies, coloring books, a children's section, games, and models for rainy days, and it also carries thousands of comics, manga, magazines, posters, and action figures. This mix positions Beach Book Mart as a general-interest coastal bookstore and pop-culture shop rather than a narrowly focused literary retailer. Its posted hours are Monday through Saturday 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Sunday 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., and it lists a local telephone number, (252) 240-5655. The business is privately held and operates a single retail location; no parent company, franchise network, or public listing is indicated in the available evidence. Its online presence is a simple official website at beachbookmart.com that provides store information and directions. Because the shop is small and independent, detailed corporate history, founding dates, ownership records, and financial data are not publicly documented in the sources reviewed. Its identity is tied to its physical storefront and its role as a beach-community bookseller and hobby shop.
