Planning a trip to the coast always inspires your taste buds and salivary glands to power up in to overdrive in the sheer anticipation of the delicious and fresh seafood bounty that awaits. Luckily, there is a plethora of wonderful seafood restaurants in North Carolina, so finding a place to feast is never an issue.
The next time you're on the southern coast of North Carolina, head to Calabash, where you'll find copious amounts of fresh-from-the-boat seafood just awaiting your order.
Calabash Waterfront Seafood Shack is located right on the docks and has plenty of room for you to spread out and chow down on fresh-caught fish.
In season, you'll even find Carolina Blue Crab, freshly steamed by the dozen and dusted with Old Bay.
Bring a partner to take on the Calabash Steam Pot for two. It's loaded with more than enough to satisfy two appetites, including clams, shrimp, potatoes, sausage, and corn on the cob.
Indulge in some of the finest seafood around when you sink your teeth into the rich flavors of shrimp that's just been caught.
How do they know how fresh it is? Calabash Waterfront Seafood Shack owns the shrimp boat, that's how!
And the restaurant seating area is entirely out of doors - and on the docks.
