WRIGHTSVILLE BEACH, N.C., March 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Dockside Restaurant and Marina, for generations the place to be at Wrightsville Beach, has new ownership. Started as a local family business, Dockside promises to continue as a local family enterprise. The change of ownership marks a renewed commitment to promoting the best of coastal Carolina culture and tradition at the popular eatery.

"The Holman and Smith families have built an icon, an institution, a great team of people offering the best service to our local community and visitors from afar," says Lionel Yow, family patriarch, longstanding Wilmingtonian, and new owner.

"I want Dockside to continue its tradition as the place to be, relaxing with friends, celebrating with family, or making new friends and enjoying the best of life away from our workaday world."

- A new Dockside online calendar featuring activities in the beachfront
community

- Improved access at Dockside Marina encouraging patrons to arrive by
boat

- Expanded hours of service for experiencing life on the waterfront
