Long Weekend in Myrtle Beach? 6 Must-Do's

Where did the summer go?

 

It seems like just yesterday we were set for Memorial Day and the official kickoff to summer. Rather than pine for days past, we’re committed to thinking ahead. To Labor Day.

 

What could you do on a long weekend on the Grand Strand?

1. Spend Time on the Beach

With 60 miles of beach to explore, the Grand Strand is a huge attraction for a Myrtle Beach Getaway. Relax, frolic, or seek thrills on the water and on the shore. You’ll find areas for seclusion and many others with quick access to a bar, restaurant, or shop. Have some fun in the sun, first and foremost. Savor the rest of summer!

4. Take a Wakeboarding Adventure

See the Waccamaw River as you never have, with a staff of U.S. Coast Guard personnel. You and as many as six guests can ride wakeboards, which are like surfboards a boat pulls along. For beginners and experts, a wakeboard ride with Island Adventures Watersports.

6. Cast a Line, One Last Time

Send summer off with a relaxing morning of offshore fishing at the historic Cherry Grove Pier. Commonly, large whiting hit abundantly in September, as well as croakers and spadefish. It’s a fun place to fish, but also just a fantastic place to be.
