Corncake Inlet, North Carolina, Historical inlet in Brunswick County, North Carolina.
Corncake Inlet functions as a natural waterway connecting the Cape Fear region to the Atlantic Ocean through Brunswick County's coastal area.
The inlet, documented since 1938, experienced significant changes during Hurricane Luis in 1995, leading to beach erosion and structural damage.
Native American tribes utilized this waterway for fishing activities and transportation routes before European settlers arrived in the region.
The location stands 4.3 miles from Southport, 4.9 miles from Bald Head Island, and 5.8 miles from Kure Beach.
Hurricane Bonnie in 1998 caused the inlet to shoal completely, transforming its status from an active waterway to a closed channel.
