All about Murrells Inlet

Located south of Garden City, the fishing village of Murrells Inlet along South Carolina’s Hammock Coast is where vacationers go to sink their toes into the sand and escape the crowds at the busier beaches north in Myrtle Beach and south in Charleston. Murrells Inlet is rich in nature, both above the ocean’s surface and below it. In fall and winter, harvesting oysters is a popular pastime, when the waters recede at low tide and expose the oyster beds. Murrell’s Inlet also boasts the impressive Brookgreen Gardens and neighboring coastal preserve, Huntington Beach State Park.

Right across from the MarshWalk boardwalk is a spectacle to behold: Goat Island, where goats are enlisted April through November to help maintain the island’s vegetation (you can view them from across the way along the boardwalk). Just down the coast from Murrells Inlet is the four-mile-long barrier isle Pawleys Island, a favorite town of vacationers thanks to its laid-back vibe, dramatic windswept dunes, and lively crabbing dock.

What are the top things to do in Murrells Inlet?

Huntington Beach State Park

Dog-friendly Huntington Beach is a magnet for families, sun worshipers, and anyone who wants to try their luck at bird-watching among the 300 species can be seen in the state park. The park has a notable historic landmark: the Moorish-style Atalaya Castle, which was built during the Great Depression and served as the winter home of New York philanthropists Archer and Anna Hyatt Huntington, who also founded nearby Brookgreen Gardens.

Murrells Inlet MarshWalk

A half-mile wooden boardwalk, the MarshWalk showcases the beauty of the natural saltwater estuary it’s built upon; you’ll spy birds of all kinds and, at low tide, plenty of oyster beds.
