Myrtle Beach's Brand New Boardwalk<\/p><\/div>

I’ve been to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina<\/a> only once – during New Year’s 2009\/2010. It was fun, but cold, and we could tell that the area would be entertaining to come back and visit come summertime. (We’d probably spend a lot of time playing miniature golf – we saw about twelve awesome looking courses!)<\/p>

Of course, I’d also love to go back and visit the actual beach in Myrtle Beach, which was just lovely in December, as cold as it was. And now, there’s a fantastic, 1.2 mile long boardwalk to enjoy<\/a> as well! The boardwalk was opened on Saturday, May 15, 2010<\/a> (as I was getting married in Key West, Florida), and it looks fabulous. The boardwalk is at times wooden and at times concrete, and it curves along the coastline like a giant sea snake. No longer do pedestrians have to trudge through the sand or risk walking along Ocean Boulevard – they can view beautiful Myrtle Beach from the safe vantage point of a lovely boardwalk.<\/p>

Boardwalks have always evoked feelings of nostalgia for me, and I find this interesting because I never grew up actually on<\/em> the beach. I lived close to the beach in San Diego, but not close enough so that my parents would walk me down to a boardwalk or a pier on the weekends. I don’t know what it is. Perhaps it’s the people watching; everyone looks so happy at the beach, and it’s enough to just sit on a bench and watch happy kids and parents stroll by.  Boardwalks are what I think about when I hear someone say “Let’s go to the beach!” Sun, sand, ocean, boardwalks and sunsets – these are also the first images that pop into my head when I daydream about beach vacations.<\/p>

As this article from Budget Travel points out<\/a>, there’s a lot happening along the Myrtle Beac<\/a>h Boardwalk; the city is very lucky to have this attraction for locals and tourists who need a break from the sandy beach scene.<\/p>

Just one more reason to plan a Myrtle Beach vacation in the near future!<\/p>
