Southport
A
quaint fishing village on the mouth of the Cape
Fear River, Southport is place you come to visit
and end up never wanting to leave. Beautiful
Victorian-style homes grace the sidewalk-lined
streets under huge sweeping oak trees, hundreds
of years old. Cool ocean breezes keep temperatures
mild year round. And Southport’s midway
point between Wilmington and Myrtle Beach make
it close to all of the action, yet with an ambiance
that feels worlds away.
Self-guided walking tours provide a wealth of
discovery. Stroll down Moore Street and visit
the many colorful gift shops, art galleries
and antique dealerships. Stop and rest at Waterfront
Park where you may see huge cargo ships making
their way up the Cape Fear River to the port
city of Wilmington. Enjoy fresh seafood overlooking
the Southport Yacht Basin and Marina where sailing
vessels stop on their way along the Inter-coastal
waterway. |
