Long stays

South Carolina hospitality is at its finest in Myrtle Beach, where cherished memories are made along 60 miles of beautiful coastline. Discover stunning sunrises over the Atlantic Ocean, fun days at the beach, lush natural wonders, new adventures, and don’t forget Myrtle Beach’s wide array of fantastic shopping venues. Savour the warm Southern hospitality, fresh coastal cuisine, and a unique flavour of fun. Here are some of the highlights of the region:

Broadway at the Beach

A centralized village of entertainment, shopping, eating, and attractions, Broadway at the Beach has 350 acres of one-of-a-kind boutiques along the water.

Ripley’s Aquarium is an ideal place to spend the day for a change of pace from the beach. The aquarium has moving glide paths alongside rays and sea turtles, beautiful exotic fish and fascinating sea creatures.

Then, there are Legends in Concert and Margaritaville, highlights of South Carolina’s award-winning entertainment district.

Murrells Inlet

Stroll the 1/2 mile boardwalk along a lovely saltwater estuary; then continue into the heart of historic Murrells Inlet fishing village where you'll find the "seafood capital of South Carolina”.  The Marshwalk serves up live entertainment and savoury Lowcountry dishes set against rustling palmettos and golden grasses.

Myrtle Beach SkyWheel

One of the iconic features of the city scape is the SkyWheel. This 187 foot (57 m) tall Ferris wheel opened in 2011 and is the biggest Ferris wheel on the East Coast, with the highest view of its kind of the gorgeous Atlantic Ocean. The Myrtle Beach SkyWheel is a breathtaking attraction and the pride and joy of the 1.2-mile Boardwalk, where those not afraid of heights will be rewarded with a beautiful view of the city's skyline. And hey, if you are afraid of heights, be sure to stop off at the nearby RipTydz Oceanfront Grille and Rooftop Bar for a little liquid courage.

Shopping

Sometimes you just need a little retail therapy. There's plenty of it in the area! Broadway at the Beach, Barefoot Landing, Coastal Grand Mall, The Market Common and the Tanger Outlet Mall are just a few local options to find that perfect outfit, gifts for loved ones or just a few trinkets for yourself.

Brookgreen Gardens

Brookgreen Gardens is the floral jewel of South Carolina's coastal community is a 9,127-acre historic site that preserves the natural and cultivated landscape of what once was four rice plantations. Enjoy the wonders of this beautiful spot as you stroll the garden paths.

The Southern Charm of Charleston

Just two hours south of Myrtle Beach is the historic city of Charleston, SC. Clippity-clop your way back to Colonial times. A horse-drawn carriage tour will reveal over 300 years of history, including antebellum mansions, churches and gardens. A licensed guide will entertain you with historical facts, lore, and humour while your carriage ride covers more than 2.5 miles and 30 blocks of historic Charleston. It really is the best way to see the “Holy City”! Choose the optional boat cruise and stand on the grounds where America’s deadliest war began at Fort Sumter and Fort Moultrie National Historical Park. The first shots were fired here, igniting a conflict that saw more than 700,000 casualties. Experience the opening battle of the American Civil War and explore its origins with a National Park ranger.

Golf, anyone?

South Carolina’s Grand Strand has over 70 golf courses, and is famously the Golfing Capital of America. The quality and variety of courses and the moderate climate make the Myrtle Beach region perfect for enjoying a round or two.  The resort web-site has some course suggestions with links for booking tee times.
