Detailed itinerary
1
The Southport waterfront is a charming blend of coastal beauty and historic Southern character. Lined with ancient oak trees, fishing boats, and waterfront restaurants, it offers postcard-worthy views of the Cape Fear River as it meets the Atlantic. Visitors can stroll the peaceful riverwalk, watch shrimp boats glide by, or take in breathtaking sunsets over the water. With its salty breeze, friendly small-town feel, and rich maritime history, the Southport waterfront is a place where time slows down and every moment feels a little magical.

Fort Johnson sits along the edge of the Cape Fear River as a quiet reminder of the region’s military past. Once an important coastal defense site, it played a key role in guarding the waterway and the communities that relied on it. Today, the area surrounding Fort Johnson offers peaceful views of the river, open skies, and a sense of stepping back in time. Weathered earthworks, scattered markers, and the natural shoreline create a blend of history and scenery that invites visitors to pause, reflect, and imagine the stories that once unfolded here.
