DUNE CROSSOVERS & BEACH ACCESS WALKOVERS

Look at almost any oceanfront home and you'll find a dune crossover & walkway from the home to the beach. At this time, it's not a requirement for oceanfront property. But dune crossovers, or elevated walkovers, provide safe and easy access to the beach and ocean, while protecting and helping build up the dunes.

In Myrtle Beach and surrounding coastal areas of North Carolina and South Carolina, these walkovers abound. Adding a dune walkover also allows access to nature as you’ve never experienced. Waterbridge Contractors of the Carolinas, LLC handles the entire scope of dune crossover and oceanfront beach walkway construction from design, permitting, construction, to completion.

A dune walkover may be constructed without a permit from DHEC-OCRM if it meets the following criteria (§48 39 290):

   • constructed of wood

   • no wider than 6 feet

   • follows the existing dune contours with a 2 ft. vertical clearance

   • does not displace sand

   • constructed with as little environmental damage as possible
