From Wikipedia, the free
encyclopedia
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Strand)
The Grand Strand or Long Bay refers to a large stretch of
beaches extending from
Calabash, North Carolina to
Georgetown, South Carolina. It consists of 60+ miles along an
essentially uninterrupted arc of beach land, beginning around
Little River, South Carolina and terminating at
Winyah Bay. Calabash is generally included in the Strand per
convention, but is not geographically part of Long Bay.[citation

The Grand Strand has become a major tourist attraction along the
Southeastern coast, with its primary city,
Myrtle Beach, attracting over ten million visitors each season. It
is home to numerous restaurants and theme parks, making it popular with
families and college students in the summer and
Snowbirds during the winter. |

coast. While the primary city is
Myrtle Beach, the entire area attracts over fourteen million
visitors each season. The Grand Strand is within a one day drive
for a large percentage of the population of the East Coast of
the United States. In spite of that fact, many visitors
choose to travel here by air, landing at the Myrtle Beach
International Jet Port, which is located within the Myrtle Beach
City Limits. The area is home to numerous golf courses,
restaurants and theme parks, making it popular with families,
college students in the summer and
Snowbirds
during the winter.
