Experience the best of both worlds in Calabash, North Carolina, where natural beauty and modern convenience come together to create a unique slice of the good life. Situated midway between the historic port city of Wilmington, North Carolina, and the Sun Fun Capital of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Calabash offers small-town charm and tranquility with easy access to schools, shopping, healthcare and all the ‘big city’ amenities.
The tiny fishing village of approximately 2,000 has a big nickname, and the town continues to carry on the tradition. Dating back to the 1930s, when outdoor fish camps welcomed returning fishing fleets, Calabash is synonymous with a method of cooking fresh seafood dipped in a cornmeal batter and deep fried to a golden crisp. It’s a tasty recipe that continues to attract hungry patrons to Calabash’s famed restaurants.
Today, Calabash is as much about birdies and eagles as it is shrimp and oysters. In fact, there are more than a dozen championship caliber golf layouts within a short drive of Kingfish Bay, and more than 80 courses within a 60-mile radius. Play some of the best links on the Grand Strand in your own neighborhood at Crow Creek, Glen Dornach, and The Pearl, where the scenery is as spectacular as the golf.
