- There is a new attraction for thousands of people enjoying the long holiday weekend in North Carolina's Outer Banks. Shelly Island is a destination you won't find on any standard map because the giant barrier island formed in the Atlantic recently-almost overnight. Mark Strassmann reports.

mikemoair lmmfao good'n!
Football fields actually make sense, its something everyone can recognize
turowat TRUE

Don’t forget Empire State Building for height
People that live on any of the barrier islands (Outer banks) here in NC know this is nothing that special. It happens all the time. These sands bars are here today gone tomorrow.
H2o Echo I don’t live there, but I agree completely
Same
It’s almost as if they mentioned it was a sandbar.
And also said it’s been growing.
3:30 they say that they come and go
If you check an ocean depth map, the water is as shallow as three feet deep as much as nine miles off Cape Hatteras. The Cape simply continues for miles below the surface.
An NC DNR article a few years ago stated that the larger currents keep the Cape forming, and if the oceans rose 300 feet, it would still be there, though Pamlico Sound would be much deeper and wider, and the mainland to the west would be hundreds of miles away.
Well then... I think Florence wanted it back
Shelly Island (and most of Cape Point for that matter) are but a memory. It's ALL gone now....
Yep, I was there in November, not much beach left right then but it comes and goes regularly.
Hello. I am local to that area. This island pops up and disappears all the time. Theres really rough water there and sharks so the LOCALS do not even think it is a good idea to even visit there. There have been many drownings there and during a storm you will see this place disappear. Soooooo if you build homes here enjoy watching them get washed away during a hurricane.
I am a native to Cape Hatteras and shoals do come and go but to say that they don’t like going to Cape Point is not a true statement. The Cape Point is the place to go for fishing…
That is not a true statement about drowning at the point.
I've always wanted to to go to a beach on the east coast. Here in California the water is always cold and it gets deep only a few hundred yards out
You should! The Outer Banks is lovely!
I swam in NJ, Maryland and Florida and the north Atlantic is cold, waves small. The summer sun burns your skin, hot sand burns your feet. Fall may be a better time for swimming.
We visited California for the first time in Aug of 2017. Half Moon Bay resort for the weekend and up to San Francisco for a week. We were sooo excited about being able to experience the west coast water! Put our swimsuits on, grabbed our towels, kicked our flip flops off, stuck a toe in the water, grabbed our towels and flip flops and ran up to the heated swimming pool and hot tub! 😬🤭😂 My son was braver of course! Ran in full speed and almost lost his breath! 😁 We figured the water temp would be chilly since the highest temperature was around 75-78 that day but geeze the water was freeeezing!
Anyways, hope you've visited by now or maybe in the future? I've lived in 👣NC my whole life and the Outer Banks (OBX) is one of my favorite places! Beginning of May and mid to late Aug is the best time to visit if you like less crowded beaches. The waters are very tricky and dangerous due to the currents so make sure you swim with others or where lifeguards are.
One more thing! Our trip to California was one of the best I've ever had! Simply beautiful! ✌🏼💙
The water in the summer is really warm off the coast of NC.
I remember visiting this, Feet where shredded from all the shells ! Lots of fun there
Two and a half years later, Yep, its just about gone.
here today gone today this is a prime example of shifting sands
richard in the tropics
When we went over the 4th July week my grandfather and I walked pretty far down starting at cape hateras beach we didn't make it down all the way to get a picture because he got tired of walking. Nonetheless still a very enjoyable trip.
Late to the party but any locals know that these types of things are dangerous. You have to resist the urge to walk out to them. The currents wrap around the cape and produce nasty rip currents that attract sharks because the currents push food there. If you're going to try and go there, don't walk/swim/wade out to it
I was there at that place for 12 hours shelling 😂
Its not an island, it's just a sandbar
its surrounded by water its an island
the undercurrent in cape hatteras/buxton/rodanthe is insane...i surfed that area a bit(im still a beginner surfer)
Leo Thorne they say this in the vid
Thank you, someone agrees with me!
It would be referred to as a barrier island or islet because it’s small.
By definition of island no matter the length of time that land is there, it will be an island if water touches on all sides.
But it’s not a island, it’s a sandbar, also it connected to the Cape, it’s just Cape Hatteras now, I have come to the Outer Banks for 15 years
I go to the outer banks 4 times a year spent 28 days there in 2020 will do it again in 2021. There is no beach better . But every trip something is deferent on the coast line.
Y'all got Tybee's dunes. At least we can still visit them. Well sort of ☺
Shelly island is long gone and so is the point. Was down there for Labor Day week 2021and there is no more point. Where all the 4x4’s were in the broadcast.
Caleb named the island...awesome...Shelly island
sharks in the ocean what a shock
Can wait to go back to the OBX
same here finally saw OBX in june 2018...had seen most of the east coast from MASSACHUSETTS to Florida prior n this summer saw Delaware/Maryland/OBX... definitely wanna go back to OBX... Delaware was kinda nice too
I can’t what till next summer I go there every year try staying in Avon on the sound it is butafull you can watch the sunset 🌅 and maybe see dolphins 🐬
R.I.P., my brother my dad and my cousin went there... without me ;( they said they saw a shark
I love here. Oml
Is this by Cape Hatteras bc Im going there in May
Yes I was just there, it’s pretty great, make sure to check out the point, park by the lighthouse and make the long walk down. Worth it to see the cape, if you go right to the point it’s like the sea is everywhere. My favorite OBX spot.
Also, try Diamond Shoals Restaurant, great food, chill atmosphere, awesome sushi. Love that area, wanna retire there.
It's gone now
I have been going to the beach for 6yrs
And my parents before I was born
@@Ghoulsandghoulettes Good for you and your mom and dad
Makes me want to go to the Outer Banks again 🤗💙🦋
Lion Rose dear, I encourage you to return back again. I just spent all of the first week of May there as my birthday gift to myself. I was all the way down on Hatteras Island the lighthouse, the Ocracoke Is ferry and the world famous fishing point. I once lived there for 7-8 complete years from 1976-1984 and it's grown up really fast so as a local-yocal, I will advise You to visit during the off-season Sept-May where the rentals will be much cheaper and the beaches and highways will not be as congested. Very pretty name for a woman as gorgeous as yourself. Be safe and take care of yourself~!
Nobody better own it
Shelly island belongs to the PEOPLE!!
A lot of shells thir I know I went there but Shelly island was gone but thire is a lot of shells
island is gone hurriance Florence just took that all away!!
I know xD
Archaeologists: There can't be an Atlantis, miles of land doesn't just vanish...
Shelly Island:
It was gone before Florence. It formed because of the consistent SW winds we had for several months. The wind went to the NE and the Shelly island disappeared
I'd bet people will build their houses there.
Sharks aren’t trouble people 😂😂 damn scaredy cats
How do you claim a beach?
With a military
NateDogMXtv haha indeed
surf potential ?
for sure
I swam there in the 70's that's the magic of nature!
The Inflatable Kayak Really!! Hahahahhahhaha that sucks in NC!!
Good inflatables are crazy tough, pvc but yeah in the ocean or in gator country Id not trust em too much
@ 2.54... "No, we don't have islands" ... Not true at all. There are many islands in the Netherlands!
Every time there’s a new island everyone want it and to go there or claim it.
it's a sandbar...you can't find surfing waves at a sandbar...the water is to calm duh!
Gone now
did anyone saw a giant foot step in 1:16
Hey sugar pops let's build our dream home here. Paradise.😂
OMG
The Gulf Stream Has Stopped!
Ice Age Here We Come!!
Waw suparb narth Carolina and I like you
another one of Edward's predictions comes to pass .
Gone by 2018
She gone now. 🤣
Sea Bee 😂😂😂
@ Sea Bee Shelly island is gone, because of Hurricane Florence? 😯
@@sonyagraske376 no, it is just a sandbar. Went under a while ago
It belongs to the ocean and it took it back…
OCRACOKE AND HATTARS WAS JOINT TOGATHER AT ONE TIME,,,BEFORE I WAS BORN,........
Women in blue, who is she??
Still watching okay that last comment she made...was real kinda stupid...yes lady go surfing there 😵😂🤣 it will be real sharktastic and you can drown from the high currents there. Only a few dozen people have been there. Its dangerous. And that was in 2018 bc ppl wanted to “colonize” the area.
The comment about our currents here are *very real and dangerous especially in this area close to Hatteras!* Try for yourself or do some research!
Rip
I wonder can you walk to the new island after you park your car on the beach?
Toonami30
You can. But there have already been 5 rescues from ppl getting stuck on the island during high tide. And there are sharks swimming around it.
Thanks for the warning.
🧡
I'm from Maryland and I have always hated people saying we're going to the outer banks. Just something about it pisses me off
leroy jenkins lol get used to it
Take that back I love nc outer banks
@@bluecloud2667 NEVER!!!
Know what you call a pretty woman on a Maryland beach?A TOURIST!.GREETINGS FROM THE FREE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA, 2A all the way.
Dubai world must happen in Miami cuba build new islands
ya'll should check out my new vlog about going to the outer banks
"Island"? LOL! That's a sand spit. It will erode or sink.
I live on the outer banks and this news isn’t going to help the traffic problem here ...I seen these Islands come and go...it belongs to the federal government...
Its gone.
11 year old in a life vest!! Ahhahahahaha Family Nick Name!! Ahhahahahahahahhahahaha
Just a sand bar
I wouldn't vacate here. I'm not big on water..that just looks a bit scary
Now it is gone!
Too bad they did put homes up on it for a summer getaway !
Shelly Island? Really? They could have given it a REALLY cool name... #js
Well, what do you suggest since you are the cool expert?
" Isla de Amor " sounds nice, " Island of Love "
the island is actually called Shark Island and the locals they got ticked off when it was renamed Shelly so much so that they changed the name back fro Shelly to Shark. it has been around for a long time.
What's wrong with Shelly - Shelley is my name!
Shelley Zip..honey nothing is wrong with the name Shelley, my niece has that name. the problem is that it is not the name of the island. the island is called Shark Island and the people who have lived near there for generations do not want the named changed. it's like people coming to Carteret County who are not from here and calling Beaufort, Be-U fort for it is pronounced bOw fort.. Be-U fort is in South Carolina not North Carolina
Turn it into a nude beach, like Ocracoke used to be in 70s. 🤓
Her thickness
It will vanish.
A
He said it belongs to the American people, whose American people?? , the continent America.? Or USA???????? Or everyone in the American continent??? I'm confused as an American....!!!!!😲😯🤨
But but muh sea levels. They should be rising right al gore!
wkeil1981 They clearly explained in the video that it was currents
wkeil1981 Currents pushed together against a sand shelf.
this is biblical.
No, it's not at all.
Awwwww so sad kid... the island you named is gone..booooo. that's gotta suck..lmao
thanks global warming and rising seas..... oh wait
Brandon D ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Are u saying global warming and rising seas are fake?
@@placebo3273 yes
@@joebonanno285 Well Global warming is real the island sank back into the ocean
@@lamaripiazza5226 oh drink the cool aid,when I was a kid they warned me not to pee outside because of global cooling...
I smoke and sell pot on Shelly Island!
Bet. You sell dabs too fam? I need pre-florence.
@2:44....dude wear a shirt....national TV and you look like that.
