North Myrtle Beach

North Myrtle Beach combines Atlantic-facing beach life with a calmer coastal rhythm in a way that reflects its position on South Carolina’s Grand Strand. The city follows the Atlantic Ocean shoreline, while the Intracoastal Waterway runs just inland, connecting marinas and residential waterways with the wider coast. Incorporated in 1968, it brought together the communities of Cherry Grove Beach, Crescent Beach, Ocean Drive and Windy Hill. Ocean Drive is closely linked to Carolina shag, the partner dance recognized as South Carolina’s official state dance. The Cherry Grove Fishing Pier is a familiar landmark extending over the ocean.
