TRIP ESSENTIALS
During the summer (high season) many hotels or other accommodations require a full week of booking beginning on Saturday.
During other times of year, a weekend can be a good get-away.
Many accommodations offer special monthly rates for Snowbirds who often visit for three months or longer from December.
Time Zone
Myrtle Beach is located in the Eastern time zone.
Daylight Savings Time (DST) happens in the spring (on the second Sunday morning of March at 2 a.m.). It’s when clocks are advanced one hour so there is more daylight later into the evening. In the fall (on the first Sunday morning in November at 2 a.m.), clocks shift back one hour to standard time. The entire U.S. (except Hawaii and most of Arizona) participates in this ritual of “springing forward” and “falling back.”
