Myrtle Beach – An Overview

Apart from being the golf capital of the world Myrtle Beach in South Carolina is a fantastic place for a family or beach holiday with activities including theme and water parks,
mini golf, fun-fairs, night life, sports including golf and tremendous shopping including huge outlet malls and several golf superstores.

We offer accommodation on the Ocean and golf courses and where the action is to suit all budgets and requirements.

Myrtle Beach is known for its many golf courses but of the 14 million visitors to this wonderfully diverse area each year only about 1 million are golfers.

The summer beach trade brings in the most visitors and as such July and August can be very busy. That said May and June and September are great times to visit Myrtle Beach for some sun, sea and sand.

One thing that Myrtle Beach is not short of is quality accommodation. From basic hotel accommodation to the most luxurious suites and condos you will find attention to detail and top class service.

Our accommodation page provides overviews and photos of our featured accommodation options including ocean front hotels, condos, villas and golf resorts.

Shopping is a big thing in Myrtle Beach with many huge malls as well as countless smaller parades and with many end of year sales this makes Christmas and New Year a fantastic time to visit for the shopaholics among you. Our shopping page will tell you more.

With 12 theatres there is plenty to do in the evenings as well while the countless restaurants and bars will ensure you don't go hungry... or thirsty!

But we couldn't do an overview of Myrtle Beach without mentioning the golf. Whether you are a true golfer looking to test yourself on some of the top courses in America or just an occassional hacker Myrtle Beach has something to entice you.

Take a look at our golf page for more details.

Apart from the 100+ championship golf courses there are many top quality par 3 courses, a far cry from the 'pitch and putt' we are used to in the UK.

For the kids among you, big and small, there are also countless 'themed' mini golf layouts or crazy golf as we know it.
