Southport Eco Tours is an exciting and educational venture created to offer participants a unique and immersive experience exploring the natural beauty and ecological diversity of coastal North Carolina. Our tours highlight the breathtaking scenery and rich environmental significance of saltwater marshes, open-water estuaries, and the dynamic confluence where the Cape Fear River meets the Atlantic Ocean. These delicate ecosystems are teeming with wildlife and provide a fascinating look at the balance of nature along the Brunswick County coastline.
Led by the experienced and knowledgeable Captain Larry Mitchell, Southport Eco Tours brings a personal and passionate touch to every outing. Captain Larry has spent more than 20 years boating, fishing, gigging, and hunting throughout Brunswick County and along the Cape Fear River. His deep-rooted connection to the area, along with his extensive firsthand knowledge of its waterways, ensures that each tour is not only informative but also filled with local stories, history, and ecological insights.
Whether you’re a nature enthusiast, a visiting family, or a group of friends looking to explore the hidden wonders of the coast, Captain Larry is eager to welcome you aboard. Discover the scenic beauty and rich biodiversity of Southport from the water — a perspective few get to truly appreciate.
