Myrtle Beach Tourism:
60 miles of beach stretch across the Myrtle Beach area, also known as the "Grand Strand." Reaching from Georgetown, SC to the islands off of NC, Myrtle Beach is home to over 13 million visitors every year.
It's no wonder why so many of them choose Myrtle Beach to be their annual vacation spot! 1,650 restaurants offer spectacular service to locals and visitors alike, while miniature golf courses, water parks, annual music festivals, boat tours, shopping areas, and other recreational activities are there to keep the non-golfers busy!
117 golf courses are currently located in the Myrtle Beach area, earning it its reputation as the "seaside golf capital of the world." With world-class courses in the North, Central, and South regions, golfers should beware of the long distances between courses located in a different region than where they're staying!
