A local hangout.

Originally an old fish shack, American Fish Co. can be found in the heart of historic Southport’s Yacht Basin.

The shack at the foot of Yacht Basin Drive has gone through many changes in it’s storied lifetime. The History of “American Fish Company”, just as enticing as the views, dates back as far as the 1940’s. In 1970 the property was used to run commercial fishing boats. In 1978 the property changed hands and from 1978 to 2003 it was run as a fully operational commercial fishing facility where fisherman continued to unload their catch of grouper, snapper, swordfish and flounder for locals and mainland markets. In 2003 a local businessman bought the business and in 2009 opened the doors once again as the pub you see today.

American Fish Company, with it’s storied past, now serves cold beverages on the water with a breathtaking view you have to experience to believe.

Cruising the Moskva River: A short guide to boat trips in Russia’s capital

There’s hardly a better way to absorb Moscow’s atmosphere than on a ship sailing up and down the Moskva River. While complicated ticketing, loud music and chilling winds might dampen the anticipated fun, this checklist will help you to enjoy the scenic views and not fall into common tourist traps.

How to find the right boat?

There are plenty of boats and selecting the right one might be challenging. The size of the boat should be your main criteria.

Plenty of small boats cruise the Moskva River, and the most vivid one is this yellow Lay’s-branded boat. Everyone who has ever visited Moscow probably has seen it.

This option might leave a passenger disembarking partially deaf as the merciless Russian pop music blasts onboard. A free spirit, however, will find partying on such a vessel to be an unforgettable and authentic experience that’s almost a metaphor for life in modern Russia: too loud, and sometimes too welcoming. Tickets start at $13 (800 rubles) per person.

Bigger boats offer smoother sailing and tend to attract foreign visitors because of their distinct Soviet aura. Indeed, many of the older vessels must have seen better days. They are still afloat, however, and getting aboard is a unique ‘cultural’ experience. Sometimes the crew might offer lunch or dinner to passengers, but this option must be purchased with the ticket. Here is one such  option  offering dinner for $24 (1,490 rubles).

If you want to travel in style, consider Flotilla Radisson. These large, modern vessels are quite posh, with a cozy restaurant and an attentive crew at your service. Even though the selection of wines and food is modest, these vessels are still much better than other boats.

Surprisingly, the luxurious boats are priced rather modestly, and a single ticket goes for $17-$32 (1,100-2,000 rubles); also expect a reasonable restaurant bill on top.

How to buy tickets?

Women holding photos of ships promise huge discounts to “the young and beautiful,” and give personal invitations for river tours. They sound and look nice, but there’s a small catch: their ticket prices are usually more than those purchased online.

“We bought tickets from street hawkers for 900 rubles each, only to later discover that the other passengers bought their tickets twice as cheap!”  wrote  (in Russian) a disappointed Rostislav on a travel company website.

Nevertheless, buying from street hawkers has one considerable advantage: they personally escort you to the vessel so that you don’t waste time looking for the boat on your own.

Prices start at $13 (800 rubles) for one ride, and for an additional $6.5 (400 rubles) you can purchase an unlimited number of tours on the same boat on any given day.

Flotilla Radisson has official ticket offices at Gorky Park and Hotel Ukraine, but they’re often sold out.

Buying online is an option that might save some cash. Websites such as  this   offer considerable discounts for tickets sold online. On a busy Friday night an online purchase might be the only chance to get a ticket on a Flotilla Radisson boat.

This  website  (in Russian) offers multiple options for short river cruises in and around the city center, including offbeat options such as ‘disco cruises’ and ‘children cruises.’ This other  website  sells tickets online, but doesn’t have an English version. The interface is intuitive, however.

Buying tickets online has its bad points, however. The most common is confusing which pier you should go to and missing your river tour.

“I once bought tickets online to save with the discount that the website offered,” said Igor Shvarkin from Moscow. “The pier was initially marked as ‘Park Kultury,’ but when I arrived it wasn’t easy to find my boat because there were too many there. My guests had to walk a considerable distance before I finally found the vessel that accepted my tickets purchased online,” said the man.

There are two main boarding piers in the city center:  Hotel Ukraine  and  Park Kultury . Always take note of your particular berth when buying tickets online.

Where to sit onboard?

Even on a warm day, the headwind might be chilly for passengers on deck. Make sure you have warm clothes, or that the crew has blankets ready upon request.

The glass-encased hold makes the tour much more comfortable, but not at the expense of having an enjoyable experience.

Getting off the boat requires preparation as well. Ideally, you should be able to disembark on any pier along the way. In reality, passengers never know where the boat’s captain will make the next stop. Street hawkers often tell passengers in advance where they’ll be able to disembark. If you buy tickets online then you’ll have to research it yourself.

There’s a chance that the captain won’t make any stops at all and will take you back to where the tour began, which is the case with Flotilla Radisson. The safest option is to automatically expect that you’ll return to the pier where you started.

River Cruise on Luxurious Radisson Boat

• Description
• Choose date

Equipped with ice-breaking technology, these huge fancy yachts are the only river cruisers running all year around. The round trip journey takes two and a half hours and floats past all the big sights like the White House, Novodevichy monastery and the Kremlin. There’s a large open air observation deck up top, while the main body of the ship houses a restaurant with a dance floor for a romantic post dinner dance. For a particularly romantic experience take one of the evening boats and admire the bright lights of the city skyline at night.

The most relaxing and picturesque tour that Moscow can offer: a great way to see the city center and its main attractions. This is a perfect alternative to exploring the city by car, if you only have time to do sightseeing during weekday rush hours.

Your English-speaking guide is eager to share every bit of their knowledge about the surrounding landscape, the architecture and historical details.

We conduct Moscow river tour on Radisson Flotilla boats all year around!  It’s warm inside during winter months, while there’s air conditioning during hot summer days. You may also treat yourself to drinks, lunch or dinner on board (drinks and food are not included in tour price).

As seas continue to rise, Carolina Beach mulls solutions to its chronic flooding woes

Researchers, town officials and residents will meet later this year to discuss potential solutions to the frequent flooding along canal drive..

Climate change can sometimes be a nebulous concept, with scientists often talking about temperatures rising by fractions of a degree over years or how habitats that will look completely different by the end of the century.

But for some coastal residents of North Carolina, the changes caused by our warming climate often show up in their streets and backyards monthly. And the frequency of these flooding events is increasing.

Take the north end of Carolina Beach. The Pleasure Island community is one of several N.C. coastal towns that has seen the impacts of high-tide flooding increase in recent years thanks to the confluence of several factors.

Rampant development, decades-old and overwhelmed stormwater drainage systems, and rising seas means low-lying areas already susceptible to flooding are seeing more and more impacts from non-storm tidal events. The result is inundated streets, dangerous driving conditions, increased salt water wear-and-tear on infrastructure and property, and residents sometimes having to wade through water just to access homes and businesses.

"It's a pain, a real pain," said Emily Peterson as she rode her bike down a relatively dry Canal Drive Thursday near the end of another period of King Tides that had prompted Carolina Beach officials to send out warnings. "It's something you have to worry about that you really shouldn't have to worry about."

And it's only going to get worse.

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), high-tide, sunny day or nuisance flooding − which is flooding that's not associated with storm surge kicked up by a storm − is happening twice as often as it did in 2000.

A study by the Battleship North Carolina, which also is experiencing major problems from nuisance flooding and has responded by "greening" its parking lot to better handle and channel the rising waters, found a more than 7,000% increase in tidal flooding between 1961, when the historic naval ship came to downtown Wilmington, and 2020. Between just 2011 and 2020, there was an eyewatering 770% increase in flooding events − a figure that's likely increased since then as researchers document sea-level rise increasing

The ongoing and worsening problem in Carolina Beach led town officials to partner with researchers from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) and N.C. State University to document the flooding and develop potential solutions.

The goal of the Sunny Day Flooding Project , which is also working with several other communities along the coast, is to help researchers better understand chronic flooding in coastal communities and the impact it has on the people and businesses in those areas, said Dr. Miyuki Hino , an environmental social scientist from UNC.

More: King tides to impact NC coast. Here's when and what you can expect in the Wilmington area.

'Variety of factors at play'

Two years after officials installed the first sensors along Carolina Beach's Canal Drive, one thing has already become apparent.

"What we found that was really surprising to me is how important a role wind plays, especially during those high-tide events," said Dr. Katherine Anarde , a coastal engineer with N.C. State, noting that much of the flooding along Canal Drive comes from water pushing up from the adjacent Yacht Basin. "If the wind is blowing in the right direction and especially from the northeast that's so common in these areas, it can really pile the water up there."

While tidal flooding causes most of the problems, it isn't the only cause. Heavy rains can lead to lots of standing water because there's simply nowhere for the water to go. Lots of impervious surfaces, from asphalt to roofs, adds to the runoff woes.

"So there are a variety of factors at play, and that's what makes coming up solutions so challenging," Anarde said.

While researchers with the project, which receives funding from a slew of federal and state agencies, continue to gather data, they also are engaging with local residents to hear what mitigation strategies they think officials should pursue.

“It’s a complex problem that requires community-driven solutions, and that's what we’ll be doing this year," Anarde said.

'Difficult decisions'

Jeremy Hardison, Carolina Beach's planning and development director, said that the town would be putting together a flood workshop focus group of 20 citizens to discuss flood impacts and mitigation strategies gathered through a community survey.

Some of the likely potential strategies, like raising streets, utilities and even buildings, are pretty obvious. Others, like bulkheading properties along the Yacht Basin and improving drainage systems, could run into regulatory issues.

All are guaranteed to be expensive, and some may not be popular − such as talk of moving people and property out of harms way.

"We can deal with a lot of problems from an engineering perspective," Hino said. "But financially and politically, those are the difficult decisions facing a lot of communities."

She added that while much of the research and focus was on flooding woes in specific communities like Carolina Beach, this wasn't a problem unique to the New Hanover County town or a handful of other N.C. coastal communities.

“Yes, these are stories playing out locally, but they are problems that are coming up in coastal communities everywhere across the country,” Hino said. “This is a big problem everywhere, and places like Carolina Beach should be praised for willing to tackle it head-on."  

Peterson, the Carolina Beach resident, said while sunny day flooding was a nuisance, it wouldn't prompt her to move.

"I live at the beach," she said smiling. "I can deal with some minor conveniences to live at the beach."
