The park hours are 6 a.m. to 10 pm. Each year, millions of campers flock to the Myrtle Beach area because of the variety of unique, full service campgrounds and state parks located along the 60-mile stretch of coastline. The Grand Strand offers 12 campgrounds in the area, including two state-owned parks, providing more than 6,200 rentable sites. Each campground offers basic services plus a variety of recreational activities. Special amenities include heated swimming pools, launderettes, convenience stores, miniature golf courses, paddle boats, saltwater and freshwater fishing, volleyball courts and bicycle and boat rentals.
Several campgrounds hold weekly outdoor church services.
All of the family campgrounds are within a few minutes driving distance of the area's most popular attractions. Campers will find restaurants, stores, live music and entertainment theaters, amusement parks, golf courses, tennis courts and nightclubs easily accessible, or they may find their campground a complete world in itself. Camping along the Grand Strand is a year-round activity. Summer is the area's most popular season because the children are out of school and families can plan their vacations together. Fall and spring are also popular with campers due to the beautiful weather, uncrowded conditions and off-season rates.
