Myrtle Beach Travel Tips

There's a reason Ripley's® Aquarium is the state's most visited attraction. This $40 million facility has a 750,000-gallon tank, hands-on exhibits and programs, and a world of exotic species on display, including stingrays, sharks, piranhas, and more. The aquarium's mission is to foster environmental education, conservation, and research.
Stay within designated zones spring through fall at Myrtle's main surfing beaches: North Myrtle, Myrtle, and Surfside.
Prince, Elvis, Tina Turner, and Tom Jones—all on the same bill? Sure—when the lineup is a troupe of impersonators paying homage to the real deal. Check out the award-winning Legends in Concert, the ultimate celebrity tribute show.
Brave Barracuda Alley, the 63-foot deep artificial reef created by a platoon of armored personnel carriers.
Swing through more than 115 area golf courses.

I would like a listing of the types of fish caught monthly around Myrtle Beach. We are planning a vacation and love to fish. Haven't decided what month to plan for.
Know the answer? Answer this question
We are trying to plan a family vacation and were looking at Myrtle Beach. I know that there is plenty to do there for any age group, but we were having trouble finding a place to stay. We would like to stay in condos/houses/villas if possible. There could be up to 50 people coming and staying in different houses, but we would like to all be close to each other. Please let me know if you there are any rental properties that would fit our needs. We were trying to stay in North Myrtle Beach, but either is fine.
