When vacationers head to the Carolina coast — and especially to the Grand Strand — it doesn’t take a lot of hard work to have plenty of fun. With our area’s comfortable coastal atmosphere and long list of family-friendly attractions, the good times simply aren’t hard to find.

As a case in point, consider this suggested itinerary for an amazing day at Long Bay Resort on the Myrtle Beach oceanfront:

Go to the beach — Anytime you visit the coast, whether it’s during the peak of summer or the coldest days of winter (which, of course, are fairly mild by comparison here), a trip to the beach is a must. And no matter the season, a walk along the shoreline can be enjoyable. So kick off your shoes and take a stroll through the sands — and for the most treasured views, consider doing so around sunrise or sunset. It’s a great way to get some exercise and see Myrtle Beach’s largest (literally and figuratively) attraction up close.

Splash around in the pool Hopefully you packed your swimsuit, because whether or not the ocean temps and weather forecast allow for a swim in the waves, we’ve got a pool or water feature that’ll support some wet and wild fun, or some restful relaxation. In addition to Long Bay Resort’s multiple outdoor pools and hot tubs, our property is home to an indoor pool deck featuring a 50-foot pool, a kiddie pool and a lazy river, plus the Silly Sub Water Park that’s sure to provide hours of on-site fun for the kids.

Enjoy lunch on your balcony — At Long Bay Resort, you don’t have to venture out and about to get an oceanfront meal — in fact, most of your vacation crew won’t even have to leave your room. Grab a to-go spread from one of our on-site restaurants, and enjoy your meal along with some sweeping Atlantic Ocean views on your room’s balcony.

Hit a hot spot — Of course, with so many alluring attractions on the Grand Strand, you’ll want to venture out and check out at least one local attraction, and maybe even enjoy a fun night out. Check out our News & Articles pages to get some ideas about where to go for adventure and delicious dining, and be sure to take lots of pictures to help preserve some of your great Grand Strand memories.

Preserve your memories — On the subject of preserving memories, journaling is a great way for the literary types among us to fully capture their mood and thoughts during their beach getaway. If you’re the type of person who likes to preserve your memories in writing, break out a pen and pad before you hit the hay to get your thoughts on record.

Get some sound sleep — To complete your memorable day on the Grand Strand, get an amazing night’s sleep to the sound of the ocean waves in your oceanfront room at Long Bay Resort. After the day of fun and relaxation you’ve had in the Myrtle Beach area, you’ll definitely have the ingredients for some sweet dreams running through your mind come bedtime.
