For a central beach-and-Boardwalk visit, choose Pavilion Parking Garage if you want a defined parking destination, or public metered spaces on 9th Avenue North if you are willing to look for an available bay. Both leave you with a walk to Plyler Park, beside the Boardwalk on Ocean Boulevard. The price of a city space […]
For a lighter downtown lunch, choose Winna’s Kitchen. For a seafood dinner with an ocean view, choose Sea Captain’s House. Myrtle Beach’s restaurants stretch from the central streets to northern Kings Highway, so pick the meal and setting together, rather than treating every address as part of one dining strip. In this guide Main Street, […]
New Year’s Eve in Myrtle Beach gives you a choice between an earlier fireworks evening and a party built around the midnight countdown. Broadway at the Beach suits an earlier evening, while the oceanfront display lets you watch from the Boardwalk or beach. A Southern Times Square at The Market Common is the option for […]
Amtrak does not run to Myrtle Beach itself. From New York Penn Station, you can take a train to Florence and arrange a road pickup, or travel to Fayetteville for a separately ticketed coach. The connection beyond the railway is what determines whether either option suits you. The journeys below end at the SkyWheel in […]
For Myrtle Beach city’s public beach, pack non-alcoholic drinks in non-glass containers, wear full-coverage swimwear and choose shade that meets the seasonal rules. Dogs, bicycles and hard boards have their own recurring access windows. These are city rules, not a single set of rules for the whole Grand Strand. In this guide Which beach rules […]
Choose your Myrtle Beach family meal around what the children will eat and where you already plan to spend time. River City Café suits a burger stop near the beach, while Friendly’s pairs familiar mains with ice cream. DinoLand Café makes dinosaurs part of dinner, and Simply Southern Smokehouse lets everyone choose separate portions from […]
Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR) is the closest scheduled-passenger airport to central Myrtle Beach. For an oceanfront stay, it is the simplest arrival choice unless a better flight into Wilmington or Charleston outweighs the longer road journey. Plyler Park, beside the central boardwalk, is the arrival point used below. Your hotel may be elsewhere along […]
Choose Old Town if your first visit centres on historic sights and dinners near your room. McCormick Ranch suits a stay built around residential surroundings and the public greenbelt, while Kierland and Scottsdale Quarter put shopping and dining close at hand. The choice is less about which district is best than what you want to […]
For Scottsdale in October, pack breathable daytime clothes, comfortable walking shoes and a removable cardigan or light jacket. Local climate normals point to warm days and cooler overnight conditions, so a small wardrobe of pieces you can layer is more useful than bulky winter clothing. Choose your extra clothes by what you will actually do. […]
From Myrtle Beach, you can reach two very different island outings without changing your overnight base. Pawleys Island suits an independent beach day, while Waites Island suits a guided paddle through the marsh with time ashore. The choice is less about which beach is closer than how you want to spend the day. At Pawleys, […]
