When vacationing on the Grand Strand, families have an extensive (and wide-ranging) list of fun activities and attractions to choose from — which is a big part of the Myrtle Beach area’s immense tourism appeal.
But of all the Grand Strand’s many attractions, none are bigger (both literally and figuratively) than the local waters, ranging from the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway to the area’s many rivers, creeks, flats and marshes. And when it comes to signature activities to pursue in Myrtle Beach, fishing definitely ranks high on the list.
5 Top Area Fishing Charters
Of course, not everybody comes to town with a fishing vessel in tow. But thanks to the many fishing charters available in the Myrtle Beach area, it’s easy for families in search of angling adventures to procure both the boat and the fishing expertise needed for a great day on the local waters.
When you and your vacation crew are looking to wet a line on the Grand Strand, consider heading to one of these five leading area fishing charters:
