Local Information

Myrtle Beach, located in South Carolina, is the hub of what is known as the Grand Strand, a 60 mile stretch of beach overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Known as one of the top "Family Beaches" as well as "The Seaside Golf Capital of the World", Myrtle Beach, and it's fast growing city neighbors, has quickly become a destination for relocating families, retirees, and investors.
