The 4th of July is right around the corner! Have you made plans to celebrate yet? You'll find plenty of fun, festive activities to enjoy this Independence Day in Myrtle Beach! Here are some suggestions to help you plan out your holiday.

Surfside Beach 4th of July Celebration: Come to Memorial Park in Surfside Beach at 5pm on July 4th and enjoy an evening of family fun. There'll be a kids’ zone, games, giveaways, food truck and live music by The Catalinas. For even more fun, plan to stop by the golf cart parade earlier in the day (at 11am). 

Murrells Inlet Boat Parade: The 41st annual Murrells Inlet 4th of July Boat Parade will begin at 5:30pm on the Fourth. Delightfully decorated boats will wind through the beautiful waters off of Murrells Inlet. Preferred viewing areas are along the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk, Belin United Methodist Church, and Morse Park Landing. There will be fireworks afterwards! 

4th of July Buffet Dinner: At the Prince Resort's onsite restaurant, 3500 Ocean Grill, you can enjoy a festive buffet dinner with gorgeous oceanfront views. The menu includes pulled pork bbq, baked chicken, corn on the cob, potato salad, coleslaw, and apple pie. This is the perfect place to view the Cherry Grove Pier fireworks  show! 

4th of July at Avista Resort: Join Avista Resort for their annual 4th of July Poolside BBQ! There will be lots of delicious food and spectacular summer vibes. Between the poolside hula fire dancing and the fireworks show at the end, there's no shortage of excitement during this event!
