Sea Mist & Grace Tanning Spa and Surf City Social Event Lounge offer a rare, dual-revenue stream investment in one of North Carolina’s fastest-growing coastal markets. Both businesses are strategically located in the heart of Surf City, positioned to capture the area’s strong year-round local demand and booming seasonal tourism traffic. This is a turnkey opportunity with established branding, loyal clientele, and significant room for even further expansion.

Sea Mist & Grace is Surf City’s only full-service tanning spa and boutique hybrid, offering premium UV tanning beds, red light facial therapy, custom spray tans, and a relaxing massage bed. Upon entry, customers are greeted by a curated retail boutique featuring clothing and accessory brands unavailable elsewhere in the community—an additional, profitable revenue stream that enhances customer experience and retention. The spa operates on a growing base of recurring memberships across multiple tiers, providing reliable, predictable monthly income. With no direct competition in the market, Sea Mist & Grace has secured a dominant, highly defensible position.

Surf City Social, the adjoining sister business, is the only versatile event space in the area, designed to host everything from private parties, weddings, and corporate events to live music, art shows, and classes such as paint-and-sip workshops. Its aesthetic photo-worthy interior and flexible layout possibilities make it one of the most sought-after venues for both locals and destination clients. With competitors either closing or relocating, Surf City Social has stepped into a near-monopoly position in the local event space market, with consistent inquiries and bookings.

Joint marketing initiatives between the two businesses can significantly increase cross-traffic, further strengthening brand reach and profitability.

Investment Appeal:
