Description
The remains of an old seawall juts out into Core Sound next to an abandoned fish processing plant in Atlantic, North Carolina. This old structure once provide some protection for boats unloading and the plant dock. Today all that remains are a few pilings and rotting boards.
Smyrna is a fishing village located in eastern Carteret county. This portion of the county is know as "Downeast" and consists of several old communities where the primary industry was commercial fishing. Known as the Crystal Coast, most of the county's towns sit along the ocean or sound. While the marine fisheries industry was once the primary industry, these days tourism is the primary focus. Activities such as sport fishing, Scuba diving, beach combing and ecotourism are popular with visitors. While the region is growing it is much less developed than the Outer Banks which are further up the coast.
