Myrtle Beach, South Carolina is known as the “Golf Capital of the World” for good reason! Each year thousands of golfers visit the Grand Strand to enjoy hundreds of gorgeous, lush courses and beautiful weather. The Myrtle Beach area is truly a Golfer’s Paradise, as the fun doesn’t end when the round is up! There’s something for everyone here to enjoy. Here’s a quick taste:
More Golf Courses in One Place than Anywhere in the World!
Myrtle Beach not only boasts hundreds of beautiful courses and clubs – but also over FIFTY 4-Star or higher rated ones, by Golf Digest, to boot. There’s World Tour, which boasts 18 holes based on the most famous holes in the world. You won’t have to travel far to play Bay Hill, Royal Troon, or even Augusta! Every golfer should make it part of their bucket list to visit the famous Dunes Beach & Golf Club. This unique course was built in 1949 and considered to be the best Jones designed course in his portfolio. No matter where you play, you’re sure to have a great experience. What’s also great is there’s always fantastic deals to be had during anytime of the year. It’s a breeze to combine your accommodations and tee times.
Over 2,000 Restaurants, Pubs, and Unique Dining Experiences on the Grand Strand!
After a long, hard day on a gorgeous course (wink, wink!) you’ll want to unwind and spend time with your friends and family. Myrtle Beach has exactly what you need! Whether you are looking for a laid back spot, right on the water where you can eat shrimp until you can’t move, or you are looking for an exciting sports bar to watch a ball game, you’ll be taken care of. Myrtle Beach is famous for its seafood but also has many burger joints that make it easy for a quick bite. The two main entertainment complexes, Barefoot Landing and Broadway at the Beach feature top notch and fun restaurants like Greg Norman’s, Paula Deen’s, The Carolina Ale House, and Umberto’s. You can’t go wrong!
Inshore/Offshore Fishing and the Beauty of the Low Country
Spring, Summer, and Fall bring excellent opportunities for anglers of any skill to have a blast and catch your fill. Inshore fishing can be found along the many piers like Cherry Grove, Apache, Garden City, and 2nd Avenue. A Rod, Reel, Hook, and a piece of Shrimp or “Gotcha” lure is all you need to catch a variety of fish. Spring fishing is great for Bluefish and King Mackerel, Summer is time for Flounder and Sharks, and Fall is time for Spots, Croakers, and Drum. Offshore fishing is an absolute joy here, as you are not too far from the Gulf Stream. Eat a hearty breakfast and make your way to the Hurricane Fleet out of Calabash. You’ll be catching, Snapper, Grouper, and seabass from the many available headboats or charter your own boat to troll for Kings, Dolphin, Tuna, and Spanish Mackerel.
Be sure to also visit the many Low Country parks and recreation areas. Huntington Beach State Park and Brookgreen Gardens are not to be missed. If you need a day away from the links, this is extremely relaxing and recharging!
60 Miles of Pristine White Sandy Beaches
Of course the main feature and draw of Myrtle Beach, SC is the beach itself! We have some of the most beautiful beaches on the east coast. It’s relaxing to take a stroll looking for shark teeth and shells or to simply sit on an oceanfront balcony with a cold beverage while you do absolutely nothing. Once you get your toes in the sand, it’s hard to leave! Be sure to bring a cooler, beach towel, and leave your cares at home!
