Fishing
The tidal creeks and marshes once used as hideouts for treasure-hungry pirates (including Blackbeard himself) now make up the scenic landscape enjoyed by South Myrtle Beach residents. A few miles down South Carolina’s Highway 17 will transport you from the tourist-filled streets of Myrtle Beach to the coastal properties of Murrells Inlet. This quaint fishing village is known for show-stopping flavors that make it “The Seafood Capital of South Carolina.” Each day fishing and shrimping boats deliver boatloads of fresh seafood to be cooked up at local eateries soon after.
During the day, the beaches of Murrell Inlet offer a more secluded sun and surf than Myrtle Beach. Residents can enjoy expert fishing tours, adventurous water sports, or simply a day of sunbathing on the warm coast.
The jewel of the inlet however, the MarshWalk, comes alive at night. This half mile boardwalk sits atop the once pirate-infested estuary, promising seafood shacks, tangerine-colored sunsets, live music, and fun for all ages. Accommodations in this hidden paradise include a range of affordably and moderately priced condos and apartment rentals.
