Birthplace of "The Shag"

North Myrtle Beach was established in 1968. The area is divided into four separate areas based on its former municipalities. These are Windy Hill, Crescent Beach, Ocean Drive, and Cherry Grove. North Myrtle Beach is second to none to any area when it comes to great family atmosphere, wide beaches, top shopping, dining, and entertainment, even casino cruise boat gambling.  Classy and casual, North Myrtle Beach is a comfortable mix of the best of what’s old and new. From elegant dining and drinks at the country club to shag dancing at a classic beach bar, from driving a golf cart on some of the nation’s top courses to driving it down to the beach, this is a place where anyone’s lifestyle will feel right at home.
