REGION MYRTLE BEACH AREA & THE GRAND STRAND When you’re ready for action, South Carolina’s Grand Strand is the place to be. Soaring resorts, thrilling family-friendly attractions and all manner of restaurants are just steps from more than 60 miles of beaches. For a slower pace, retreat to a barrier island in the Hammock Coast area; or, for timeless music and moves, head to North Myrtle Beach to the birthplace of the state dance, the “Carolina Shag.” Atalaya Castle, Huntington Beach State Park, Murrells Inlet REGIONAL MUST-SEES Conway Riverwalk, Conway | Hopsewee Plantation, Georgetown | Atalaya Castle/Huntington Beach State Park, Murrells Inlet The Carolina Opry Theater, Myrtle Beach | Alligator Adventure, North Myrtle Beach | Pawleys Island Nature Park, Pawleys Island 77
