Travel to Myrtle Beach

The busiest routes from MYR are to Atlanta (Delta) and Charlotte (US Airways), with several flights each day. Spirit Airlines offers regular flights to New York (LaGuardia). American Airlines and Continental Airlines each have one daily flight to their hubs in Dallas and Newark respectively.

Grand Strand Regional Airport in North Myrtle Beach also serves the area and is used mostly by private or chartered flights.

Car

From Interstate 95 South, take US 501 South for 66 miles.

The Grand Strand's network of roads has vastly improved. One way to get in is the 28-mile Veterans Highway, a four-lane road that links U.S. 501 west of Conway and U.S. 17 north of Myrtle Beach.

Another is the Carolina Bays Parkway which runs from S.C. 9 to U.S. 544 (this will eventually extend to U.S. 17 Bypass). This is a six-lane scenic highway near Myrtle Beach Raceway.

Harrelson Boulevard is a new access road to Myrtle Beach International Airport from U.S 17 Bypass.

Robert M. Grissom Parkway runs parallel to U.S. 17 Bypass and provides a passageway through central Myrtle Beach. This is a four-lane route from 62nd Avenue North in Myrtle Beach to Harrelson Boulevard near the Myrtle Beach International Airport.
