So the family has finally convinced me a vacation is in order... And Myrtle Beach it is. Having never been there I was hoping some you 'mericans could give me some ideas what the hell there is to do there... Heading down in March, about 14 hrs drive I think, gonna giver in one shot. Anything interesting other than eating and drinking too much??

GOLF, GOLF and more GOLF - there's over 200 courses in a 12 mile x 12 mile area! :biggrin: March can be iffy for good golf weather there too, usually doable though.
Lots of good eating and drinking establishments - good seafood.
Beaches - again, hit or miss on if the weather is good enough to enjoy that very much in March. Going IN the water at that time? - NO! Unless, you're a diehard surfer and have a good dry suit.
Lots of touristy stuff (miniature GOLF, theme restaurants, etc.) and the people there are generally very friendly. -
Thanks for the reply! We're heading there because my inlaws have a place for Feb/Mar so accommodations are free. They are big golfers, I am not. I'm Canadian, so, short of there being ice on the water, I'll probably go for a swim. I'm not a seafood eater but love fish. Looks like there is a bar on the pier, you'll likely find me in it!teekay0007 wrote: »GOLF, GOLF and more GOLF - there's over 200 courses in a 12 mile x 12 mile area! :biggrin: March can be iffy for good golf weather there too, usually doable though.

Murrell's Inlet has some really good seafood/fish restaurants. South of there is Huntington Beach State Park for a more natural beach experince and a little south of that is Brookegreen Gardens, which has the largest sculpture garden you'll ever see. It's a beautiful place, well worth the trip. A word of caution, there's a lot of gators in and around the waters at the Gardens, stay away from them. I pretty much stay out of Myrtle Beach proper, a total tourist trap, but they do have a very cool old time wooden rollercoaster. There's also decent tittie bar off the main road in, just outside of town. Once you get off of I-95 South, do NOT speed or you will get a ticket...you have been warned.Political Correctness'.........defined
