5 Reasons Why Summer Never Ends in Myrtle Beach!

By Julia Diem Friday, August 15th, 2014

Kids are getting ready to go back to school and the weather may soon begin to get a little cooler where you live. But did you know that summer is seemingly endless in Myrtle Beach and that fall is still a great time for a beach vacation?

Below are the top reasons why summer never truly ends in Myrtle Beach:

1. It still looks like summer: Fall may involve color-changing leaves in many parts of the country but in Myrtle Beach much of our town stays green right into fall. Palms trees and sunny skies mixed with endless beaches make for a great vacation if you aren’t ready for summer to end or if you missed being able to take a vacation this summer! Plus, what’s better than enjoying a pumpkin spiced latte from your oceanfront balcony as you watch the sun rise?

2. Summer fun all season long: Throughout the fall there are still tons of fun things to do in Myrtle Beach. Take a ride on the SkyWheel, come face-to-face with colorful fish at the Ripley’s Aquarium, take a dip in the pool at your resort, stroll along the Boardwalk or set up your umbrella on the beach and relax in the sun. You’d never even know that summer has officially ended!

3. Warm weather is here to stay: For those that don’t like the burning heat of the summer, fall is a perfect alternative for just about anyone looking to enjoy some pleasant temperatures at the beach. September highs average in the low 80s while October average high temperatures sit in the 70s. That sort of weather is perfect for a day at the beach or out on the town!

4. Budget friendly Myrtle Beach becomes even more budget friendly: Known as a family-friendly vacation destination that is not hard on the wallet, Myrtle Beach becomes even more affordable in the fall. Currently, rates are low at many oceanfront resorts in Myrtle Beach, leaving more money in your pocket. Plus, if you book now you are likely to get some of the best rates possible. Fall was once a best kept secret of Myrtle Beach, but word is getting out that it’s an amazing place to visit this time of year, which means demand is growing! By booking early you can get in at a lower rate and have even more of a choice of room types, so you can get exactly what you need. For example, if you aren’t worried about the view, you can get an Interior Guest Room at Landmark Resort from just $38 a night this fall! Or, go with an Oceanfront Standard Room from just $51 a night. Want to stay on the north end? You can grab an Oceanfront Studio at Sea Watch Resort from just $59 a night or go for a larger unit like an Oceanfront Two Bedroom Condo from just $109 a night. Looking for a resort in mid-Myrtle Beach? Forest Dunes Resort has One Bedroom Ocean View Suites from just $48 a night and Three Bedroom Ocean View Condos from just $85 a night. There are truly rates for every budget in Myrtle Beach this fall!

5. The beach is here to stay: The beach is here year-round, so why aren’t you? You can sink your toes into the sand any time of year, search for shells, build a sand castle and make memories that can only be made on a beach vacation.

What are you waiting for? Summer never ends in Myrtle Beach and now is the time to start planning your getaway!
