Ride the Waves: Your Ultimate Watersports Destination

With 60 miles of sandy ocean coastline, a river (the Waccamaw) emptying into the Atlantic, plus estuary areas at Murrells Inlet and Little River, and the Intracoastal Waterway, you’d guess Myrtle Beach would be an awesome place for fun on the water. And you’d be right. Tour boats, places that rent personal watercraft and other power and paddle boats, and charter fishing boats are all here for you. Just pick a way to enjoy a daily dose of salt or fresh water.
