Shopping and dining are important in any destination, but especially in the Myrtle Beach area where socializing revolves around a good meal, often located in a shopping district.

Waterfront dining is a treat, and many hotels offer their own beach bar or quick lunches while you're making serious plans for entertainment and dinner miles away.

Feel free to explore the hundreds of choices by driving through the area rather than sticking to one part of town.
