Scenic Sunday #96: Calabash, North Carolina

Calabash, North Carolina, waterfront. May 3, 2010.

This is my post for the Scenic Sunday meme, which shares beautiful scenes from around the world. To see more Scenic Sunday posts, or to join and show your own pictures, click HERE.

The picture above is of the Calash, North Carolina, waterfront. Calabash is a fishing town and those are fishing boats at the dock. Although the largest boats are shrimp boats, there are also charter boats available for deep sea fishing. The inlet leading to the intracoastal waterway and the Atlantic is to the right front of the picture.

Calabash is also the location of some fabulous seafood restaurants. To the left of the boats in the foreground (across the dock and some marsh land) is the Dockside Restaurant. Calabash is just above the North Carolina – South Carolina border and only a few miles from North Myrtle Beach. If you are in the area and want some great seafood, visit the Dockside or one of the other restaurants along the waterfront.

Great seafood sounds yummy – except for shrimp – allergic to that one! Lovely photo as always! Your driveway header is beautiful!

Now my mouth is watering for some seafood, although we do have plenty of that here.

I am not a seafood person, but the rest of my family loves it. I would still enjoy going there just to see all the boats, though.
