About Carolina Shores
Carolina Shores sits right along the North and South Carolina state line, right next door to Calabash and just inland from Sunset Beach. The community first took shape in the 1970s as a golf-oriented neighborhood before officially incorporating as a town in 1998. It has stayed largely residential, with quiet subdivisions surrounding the Carolina Shores Golf and Country Club, and Highway 17 provides direct connections to North Myrtle Beach to the south and Wilmington to the north.
Life here revolves around tree-shaded streets, golf fairways, and a relaxed, neighborly atmosphere. Brunswick County provides public schools and countywide services, while town government keeps up local parks and neighborhood roads. For anyone moving to the area, it offers a comfortable coastal lifestyle with quick trips to the beach, nearby seafood spots, and easy access to regional shopping centers.
