Since 1958, the iconic Sunset Beach Pontoon Bridge linked the Mainland and the Island. Opening hourly and on demand, and occasionally breaking down, it served residents and visitors for more than fifty years.
With the opening of the Mannon C. Gore Bridge in November, 2010, the old bridge was decommissioned. She now sits surrounded by live oak trees on a lot across from the Sunset Beach Fire House.
