Welcome to The Crystal Coast

Throughout our trip, we had great weather. We arrived on Emerald Isle around 1:00 P.M. and searched for a place where we could have lunch.

There on the bay was a great little restaurant. With a name like , The Crab Shack, and with fishing boats moored outside, how could we lose?

Our first seafood meal of the trip was great. Fresh fish and shrimp plus okra, black-eyed peas, and wonderful hush puppies created a tremendous lunch.

This restaurant had all the trappings of the sea.

They sold seashells are very reasonable prices. Local fishermen clean the shells that are collected in their nets. On Tuesdays, The Crab Shack serves conch soup. We were a day early for this yummy soup. The only time we have had this offering was when we were in Bermuda.
