Is there anything more savory than fresh-caught seafood that’s straight from the boat?? We think not. If you agree, then hit the road to Calabash for North Carolina seafood so fresh you may think it’s still swimming!

The difference between the Waterfront Seafood Shack in Calabash and most seafood restaurants?

The seafood here is fresh from the boat and prepared just the way you like it!

Hit up the walk-up window at the Waterfront Seafood Shack and order up some fresh catch. Then go have seat in the outdoor dining room (right on the docks) and wait for your feast to arrive.

You’d be hard pressed to find seafood fresher than here, where the restaurant owns the boats that catch the fish.

Plus, if you’re up for some deep sea fishing, you can hop a charter with this crew, catch your own fish, and then have Waterfront Seafood Shack cook it your way when you return! What more could you ask for??

How about some other seafood too? Like king crab legs (in season)!

For dessert, head over to Calabash Creamery to stuff yourself to the gills with one of their famous 24-scoop sundaes and then hit up the biggest gift shop on the Carolina coast at Callahan’s.
