Founded in 1938 and named in honor of its abundant native wax myrtle bush, Myrtle Beach lies between the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway on the west and the Atlantic Ocean on the east. It is considered the #1 Family Beach in America and one of the most popular destinations on the east coast of the United States.
