Myrtle Beach is widely regarded as one of the top destinations for golf trips in the United States – and there are many excellent reasons why that’s so. If you’re still deciding on a destination for your upcoming golf vacations, check out these five reasons that Myrtle Beach should be at the top of your list.
Golf Courses
Myrtle Beach is home to more than 100 golf courses, and more than 50 of them feature 4-star layouts. The Grand Strand is a golfer’s dream not just for the sheer number of courses you can play but for their quality. Seven of Golf Digest’s “America’s 100 Greatest Courses” are all located along the Grand Strand. How can a golfer go wrong?
Great Value
When Myrtle Beach first became popular for golf trips, it was known as the bargain basement of golf vacations. Back then, the courses fit the bargain basement description but in the intervening years, some of golf’s top course architects have stepped up to build and redesign the most popular courses. Value is still a primary feature in Myrtle Beach golf trips, though. The courses, clubs and resorts along the Grand Strand offer special packages and golf vacations tours that offer great value at very affordable prices.
Superb Weather
Myrtle Beach offers year-round spectacular golfing weather, with average temperatures in the 70s and more sunny days than most other parts of the country. There’s very seldom a bad day for golf – if there is such a thing – along Myrtle Beach.
Wonderful Food
No matter how much you’d like to spend all your time on the green, a golfer’s gotta eat, and Myrtle Beach offers some of the country’s best restaurants. Whether you want to grab a quick burger on the go (Ron Jon’s Beer and Burgers is your go-to place) or sit down to a gourmet meal in a world-class setting like New York Prime, Myrtle Beach has got you covered.
Location
It’s hard to find a more beautiful place than Myrtle Beach. From the stunning coastline and sandy beaches to the moss-draped trees of the inland swamps, Myrtle Beach golf trips surround you with mother nature’s beauty. If you’re among those who think the scenery is a great reason for a golf game, Myrtle Beach is the place you want to be.
