South Carolina’s Grand Strand stretches 60 miles from Little River to Georgetown and is one of the most popular tourist destinations. The Grand Strand has become a major tourist attraction along the Southeastern coast, with its primary city, Myrtle Beach, attracting over ten million visitors each season. It is home to numerous restaurants and theme parks, making it popular among college students on spring break, families all summer long and snowbirds in the winter.
North Myrtle Beach formed in 1968 from the merger of several beach communities consisting of Cherry Grove Beach, Tilghman Beach, Ocean Drive Beach, and Crescent Beach & Windy Hill.
The main vacation areas along the Grand Strand are:
Little River is a quaint fishing village and considered the oldest towns along the Grand Strand. Located along the Intracoastal Waterway it is best known for deep-sea fishing, charter boats & commercial fishing. There are many places to dine, shop and Las-Vegas style casino gambling boats.
