Stay near the water.
Eat near the boats.

Fishing by day, arcade games and live music in summer evenings. Close enough for a long walk or a very short drive.

Follow the half-mile MarshWalk for seafood kitchens, dockside tables, live music, and wide-open inlet views.

Charter fishing, sunset cruises, fuel, bait, and a good place to watch the boats return.

Three quiet miles of undeveloped beach, wetland boardwalks, birding, and Atalaya Castle.

TPC Myrtle Beach, Caledonia, and approachable executive courses all sit within an easy drive.

Start at Harrelson’s Seafood Market for local shrimp, fish, oysters, and the day’s fresh catch. Explore other nearby seafood markets for more dock-to-counter choices; Kroger and Publix are close for everything else.

Watch for bottlenose dolphins offshore; sea turtles on the beach; and ospreys, pelicans, herons, egrets, blue crabs, and other wildlife around the salt marsh. Give animals space and help protect their habitat by keeping the beach and waterways clean.

Make a day of it beyond the beach. Explore aquarium discoveries, Broadway at the Beach, miniature golf, and amusement-park rides. Find family favorites and more ideas on Tripadvisor.
