Festivals in Myrtle Beach

Myrtle Beach hosts a number of festivals that will immerse you in southern-style entertainment with a unique South Carolina flair. Pageants, sand castle contests, barbecue, live music and Shag competitions are some of the many family-friendly activities you can plan your vacation around.

Myrtle Beach was recently listed on the Top 10 Travel Destinations for Labor Day Weekend by travelangentcentral.com.  Temperatures are typically in the mid 80's, so why wouldn't the beach be a perfect spot to visit during the upcoming Holiday weekend?
