Two South Carolina Cities Are In Trip Advisor Top 10 Winter Destinations
Two South Carolina Cities we love to visit made Trip Advisor’s Top 10 winter destinations. Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head made the list this year. Trip Advisor picks the cities based on users’ searches for winter travel. The searches for Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head increased year over year. We only visited Hilton Head during the summer months so far. However, several times in years past, we took post Christmas trips to Myrtle Beach. Even though I love the typical summer beach atmosphere, I love the winter beach vibe for different reasons. We still found things to do and fun places to go. The activities are just more indoor focused. Plus, the crowds are smaller. And, the hustle and bustle is a little calmer after Christmas. If you’ve never tried a holiday beach trip, I recommend it. I enjoy the cold weather and not bringing all the sand into the house every day!
Trip Advisor recommends Happy Dolly Days at Myrtle Beach and Harbour Town Lights at Sea Pines Resort in Hilton Head. Admittedly, I have not attended these events. But, I’m game to try just about anything. And, the Myrtle Beach visitor bureau points to the Myrtle Beach Bowl on December 19 and the National College Cornhole Championship December 29-January 1. You can also enjoy a drive through miles of lights at The Great Christmas Light Show. Hilton Head offers illuminated boats at A Coastal Holiday. Kids will enjoy searching for Elf on a Shelf at the Tanger outlets in Hilton Head. While South Carolina was the only state lucky enough to have two cities on the list, there are plenty of others to check out across the country. You can see their list and where we rank here. Happy holidays and safe travels!
