    Please remember that this isn’t just a tourist town! Many many of us reside here and it’s our beach all year round, PLEASE PLEASE KEEP OUR BEACHES AND BEACH WATER CLEAN 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 there are trash cans all around set up for YOU to put your trash in not me!!! Just bring a small trash bag down with you and when finished sunning you can drop your own trash in the cans. We would so appreciate it ♥️

    I'm an overnight security guard/pool guy. We're glad you're here, we want you to have fun, but I was born and raised here, don't get so drunk you can't function, and don't get an attitude with security, 9 out of 10 if you're cool with us we'll give you some great pointers and look out for ya a little extra, I personally don't want you to get in trouble but there's only so much talking I can do before I gotta call somebody, I mean I live here after all, you think I don't understand the urge to party? Oh yeah, pick up behind yourselves, also, if you get in a pool and your eyes burn, it's WAY more likely that the PH is high NOT the Chlorine, just fun fact from the pool boy.

    I blindly traveled to MB this past June for a week, it was my first visit to SC. We arrived just as the Country Music Festival was starting. We had no idea is was going on. Still had tons of fun. Beach wasn't packed during the day. Mostly stayed in our hotel room at night to avoid the rough and rowdy, which was fine we needed to rest after all the sun and sand. Days it rained we went to Ripleys believe it or not and another day went to the Aquarium.

    Went to Myrtle Beach last summer. All the hotels charged ridiculous prices. As much as 800 a night. They hurt the shows because people cant afford those prices and leave early or don't visit. We would not have gone if we knew the gouging going on. Cheaper hotels miles away were booked . They lost revenue to the 5 shows food and other attractions that we would have purchased. We turned around and went back to Florida and stayed in a hotel on the ocean for a LOT less ! We wont be back.

      We heard a lot about Mrytle Beach so we were so excited to go. We got tired of going to servierville, TN, pigeon forge, Gatlinburg. Which is 30 minutes away from where I live.
      Once we got to myrtle beach we regret it so bad.
      We could get a nice Luxury cabin in pigeon forge for less.
      Own Jacuzzi, own swimming pool.
      I will never ever go again.
      The locals are rude af with tourists even walking around.
      I am not racist but we were the minority there no other race but African American.
      I have never ever met rude ppl like them, no respect at all. Always trying to look for a God damn reason to start a fight.
      We were waiting for our turn to cross the street with the had sign which literally says on the sign to not cross and the black family behind us starting saying, " fucking move, fucking move or I will move you" if they wanted to cross they could literally could we weren't blocking anything. We were 3 ppl and rhey were 6.
      Walking down the street looks like a bunch of prostitutes and guys just going around with loud music and been rude.
      Worst experience ever.
      If you want to have a good time with your family and been treated nice come to Gatlinburg or pigeon forge, TN

      I stay at Ocean Annie’s it’s 20 minutes from North Myrtle beach and away from Broadway. If you book months in advance you will find good deals.
      They also have bedroom suits if you need extra beds. I paid about 1900$ for 6 nights.
      If you book close to your arrival date ( if it’s in the summer months) it’s going to be way more expensive. I paid about 1k for 3 nights last year at Ocean Annie’s for a regular two beds.
      I got smart and booked early. I always make sure it’s fully refundable up to 2 weeks before the date.
      Ocean Annie’s is also directly on the beach. When you walk out the back of the building you literally are walking right into sand. The room we stayed in was clean, but the room we booked wasn’t the same room we got.. the maintenance man said that they use newly refurnished apartments they have in the building and put up pictures for the rooms to make them more appealing. But the room was still nice and clean I was amazed that their wasn’t any sand in the floors from previous guests. I saw the house cleaners all the time cleaning rooms too. We had a great ocean view.
      They have two pools and 2 hot tubes. The hot tubes are at the inside pool which is right by the door you walk out of to go to the beach. The hot tubes was little too hot for me but my friend enjoyed them.
      The lazy river they have I do not recommend. It’s too small and too narrow.

DONT hang out with locals you dont know, we will steal your stuff. DONT buy any local drugs, have over a dozen friends that have died since middle school from laced drugs. DONT walk near roads, theres ALOT of Drunk Drivers, have many friends dead from being hit by cars.

    Horry County is still one of the lowest-paying counties in the nation. People make more money driving Uber and Lyft that is why it's a staff shortage because those workers are doing gig work and not resort work any longer. Also, some resorts need to invest in fixing up properties. It's shameful for some rooms to look like the Brady Bunch era, especially with all that money those resorts make in summer.

    When in Myrtle Beach, I pay more attention to the drivers over the traffic lights. When crossing kings highway don't count on drivers to stop at a red light or stop sign. It's better to cross when you don't see any cars. I learned to cross near a corner of a side street to be sure there were no cars comming down the side street that might take the corner and hit you. I saw so many foolish accidents around traffic lights there. Fun place to be though. You can actually buy beer n wine coolers at 3am on a Sunday!🤣

    .... I've been living here for over 30 years... the beaches are great....I've lived in Hawaii, gulf coast, and west coast... I must say these are nice beaches for families and walking... not surfing.... food is awesome if you look for the locally owned restaurants... lots of golfing and nightlife... if drinking is your thing... dont do that in myrtle... go to Wilmington, NC they have great pub crawls in the classic downtown

      The sand and length of the beaches of Hawaii are inferior to Myrtle beach... Hawaiian sunsets are the best in the world though... If you want the worst of both go to the go to the Gulf of Mexico... And I have actually lived many years in Waipahu, Myrtle Beach, and Gulf Port... So I speak out of experience

MB is not safe anywhere. If you think you are being followed drive to a cop/EMS, and have someone on the phone. If you are being followed on foot find a store employee do not go to your car yourself.

    If you want to go to the beach ( Myrtle Beach State Park) and you have 4+ in your family, it might actually be cheaper to purchase a season's pass, if you plan on visiting a few days. The state park has hiking trails, educational things for the kids, clean bathrooms, a souvenir shop ( with snacks)...a pier for fishing, and the only time I have seen crowds ( maybe) is on the weekends. You won't be disappointed.

From food, to renting a boat(was $450 for 8 hours every year until last year same company we always use was raised to $1,000 for 8 hours just allowed in the inter coastal and they told that it wasn’t Covid related because they were extremely busy all thru Covid he basically told us he could raise the prices so he did and now our favorite activity is off the table), to hotels all of it has gotten so expensive so do you have any secrets on how to save money and still have a fun, great trip?

I don't remember going back after that. It wasn't a huge amusement park but it was nice. There are a lot of old pictures on the internet of it. Every once in a while on eBay there is a park map for sale. Usually expensive.
