North Myrtle Beach: SC 31 S @ MM 6.9
The landscape around North Myrtle Beach is a low, wooded Atlantic coastal plain, a setting that has shaped both its development and daily life. The city stands on South Carolina’s Grand Strand beside the Atlantic Ocean, while the Intracoastal Waterway threads through the area inland of the shore. North Myrtle Beach was incorporated in 1968 through the consolidation of Cherry Grove Beach, Crescent Beach, Ocean Drive Beach and Windy Hill Beach; those names still identify its principal communities. Inland, SC 31—also called the Carolina Bays Parkway—forms a controlled-access route around the busier coastal corridor. Its broad right-of-way cuts through the flat pine woodland characteristic of Horry County, linking North Myrtle Beach with the wider Myrtle Beach area.

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.

Among the regions of the United States, South Carolina stands out for its sweep from the Atlantic coast and tidal Lowcountry to the foothills of the Blue Ridge. Its shoreline combines barrier islands, salt marshes and estuaries, with Charleston long established as one of the country’s important Atlantic port cities. Fort Sumter, in Charleston Harbor, is where the American Civil War began in 1861. Farther inland, Congaree National Park protects a notable expanse of old-growth bottomland hardwood forest, while Columbia serves as the state capital.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
