Home to the North Carolina 4th of July Festival, historic Southport exudes real Old South charm, and is a fabulous place for you to vacation if you’re looking for just a little bit more than the beach. Originally a fort to protect the area residents against pirate and Spanish privateer attacks, Southport has since played host to Confederate blockade runners and even movie stars in more recent years. Enjoy the Cape Fear riverfront, live oak lined streets, fine dining and eclectic shopping choices in this town steeped in Colonial and Civil War era history. Both the Bald Head Island and the Fort Fisher Ferries depart out of Southport, opening your exploration opportunities even more. Our marina view vacation rentals place you in the heart of Southport and within walking distance to anything this town has to offer.
