Discover Southern Shores
With the Currituck Sound on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other, Southern Shores boasts a dining scene that is heavily influenced by the surrounding waters. You can grab a waterfront table and order steamed mussels, fried clams, or boiled crab legs. For a specifically Southern taste, opt for a plate of shrimp and grits. Given Southern Shores' eastern North Carolina location, it should also come as no surprise that you can find barbecue joints cooking whole pigs and serving hush-puppies, slaw, and chopped pork seasoned with vinegar. International options include Thai, Mexican, and Caribbean-themed spots. For dessert, stop into a local ice cream parlor for a cone or head to a doughnut shop that is always serving donuts just out of the fryer.
