Shoals Club

Oceanfront elegance perched high above the shifting tides and Atlantic horizons of North Carolina's southernmost barrier island.

Accessible only by passenger ferry and golf cart from Southport, this Cape Fear coastal sanctuary sits atop dunes directly overlooking the dramatic Frying Pan Shoals. Couples can pledge their vows on the event terrace or barefoot along the expansive sandy shoreline before transitioning to the breezy, cedar-shingled clubhouse for dinner. Floor-to-ceiling windows and open-air decks capture sweeping ocean vistas and sea breezes, providing an unhurried, resort-style ambiance that feels miles removed from the mainland.
