These golf courses are found in areas such as the nearby town of Shallotte and people come from all over the United States to golf at them. The downfall to all of these golf courses is that many are located along tidal creeks and estuaries (insert golfcourse pictures) which then drain into the Atlantic Intracoastal Water Way and pollute the water. This can lead to excess production in the waterways which can have a negative effect on local fish and wildlife. Golf Course
