 Southport,
originally incorporated in 1792 as Smithville, its progressive
citizens changed its name to Southport in 1887 in hopes of
attracting a port. The port went further upstream to the City
of Wilmington but this entrepreneurial spirit is alive and
well in the City today.
The
historic charm of this community will captivate you as you
walk under a canopy of 200 year old live oak trees, or walk
past majestic Victorian century homes which once belonged
to river pilots or maybe even a pirate or two.
Southport
is one of few City’s with a true downtown. Banks, antique
& collectible shops, restaurants, and professional offices
line about a five block area in the downtown commercial district.
Just outside this district is one of the finest medical care
facilities in our region, J.A. Dosher Memorial Hospital. A
visit to our area is not complete without a day or two of
walking through these antique and specialty shops, stopping
along the way for a leisurely lunch at an outside pub or restaurant
along the waterfront or yacht basin, taking a pedicab historic
tour of the City, watching transoceanic vessels pass by at
Waterfront Park and visiting the NC Maritime Museum in Southport.
 The
City of Southport also offers sailors, anglers and boaters
a safe haven through the Southport Marina, Old Yacht Basin
and City Pier.
