The town of
Calabash is located in Brunswick County, North
Carolina, minutes
Sunset Beach and nestled along the border of South Carolina.
This quaint fishing town is famously know as the "Seafood Capital
of the World" for it's Calabash style fried seafood. People travel
from afar to eat here, where fresh catches are prepared
Calabash-style, a low country style of cooking with a taste and
personality all its own. Because of Calabash’s position of being
the southernmost river town and its location near the Atlantic, it
became the ideal site for the first Calabash restaurant, an oyster
roast, which opens up the doors of its shed and its sawdust floor
in 1935. Calabash has dozens of specialty stores and local art
galleries, where merchants offer goods that cannot be found
anywhere else in the area. Like so many of the towns in the
Brunswick Islands, Calabash also offers choice golf courses for the
discriminating duffer. Restaurants along the Calabash River are a
great place to watch the shrimp boats come in before enjoying the
dozens of specialty shops and boutiques downtown.
Homes for sale in the
Calabash
area vary greatly depending on your style and needs. Waterfront
homes along the Calabash River to large communities complete with
amenities are just a few of the choices. Calabash is just minutes
from
Sunset Beach.
