Myrtle Beach State Park
Best time to visit
Early morning or late afternoon, when temperatures are cooler and bird activity is highest. Spring and fall offer the best migratory bird viewing and smaller crowds.
Budget tips
Day-use fee about $8 per vehicle, the annual South Carolina State Parks passport covers entry and pays off after a few visits; bring a picnic and refillable water to avoid concession prices.

About
快速信息: A narrow band of protected coastline backs a dense maritime forest, where palmettos and live oaks shade short nature trails and quiet lagoons. Anglers cast from a low-profile pier while migrating shorebirds and dolphins often cruise close to the surf, giving easy wildlife viewing without long hikes.
亮点: Golden light along the dunes turns the sand pink, and the salt-thick air smells of seaweed and pine, so even a short walk feels cinematic. A shady boardwalk slips into the heart of the forest where the crunch of palmetto fronds underfoot and the resinous tang of live oak sap create an almost otherworldly contrast to the surf.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy shoes for sandy trails and dune crossings.
- Bring sunscreen, a hat, and bug spray, mosquitoes can be active at dusk.
- Check tide and surf reports before fishing or beachcombing, and bring binoculars for marsh and pond birdwatching.
- Arrive early on weekends to secure parking near the pier and visitor center.
