Pack up the kids, bring some beach toys, boogie boards and you’ve got a day of relaxation and soaking up the Southern sun and gorgeous scenery.
2. Housing Market- Myrtle Beach real estate is HOT! and with property taxes at a low 4-6% owning property is more attainable than you may think! If Myrtle Beach is a popular travel destination for your family, you can buy a vacation home for your getaways and rent it out when you aren’t using it. Its a great way to invest your money by having other vacationers help pay off your mortgage while you still get to enjoy the luxury of a second home!

Catch one of the exciting live dinner shows such as Pirates Voyage and Medieval Times which will be sure to leave not only your kids mesmerized but the adults as well! There are shows happening nightly at Alabama Theater, Palace Theater and Legends that you will not want to miss!
