With more than 90 golf courses in the immediate vicinity, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina is a golfer's paradise. However, golf is not the only entertainment you'll find in this area. This is because Myrtle Beach is situated right on the Atlantic Coast. After hitting the fairways, you can spend the afternoon or evening playing by the water. There are some fine oceanfront hotels that make you second-guess spending time on the course.
