How did the south challenge the blockade of it's ports?

The South challenged the Union blockade of its ports primarily through the use of blockade runners, which were fast, agile ships designed to evade Union ships. These vessels would often travel along the coastline at night or in poor weather to slip past the blockading forces and deliver crucial supplies, such as food, munitions, and luxury goods from foreign ports. Additionally, the Confederacy employed various tactics, such as disguising ships and using smaller, less detectable vessels, to facilitate smuggling operations. Despite these efforts, the blockade significantly hindered the South's ability to trade and resupply throughout the Civil War.
