Myrtle Beach and Beyond


You don't exactly cruise through Myrtle Beach, SC as much as you go"behind" it. The Pine Island Cut begins at North Myrtle Beach and curves westward joining the Waccamaw River past Murrells Inlet and on to Georgetown, SC. You never see the beaches or the many golf courses there. A few courses do border the ICW but mostly it is new housing developments.

We made a short fuel stop at Osprey Marina. Diesel was $2.83/gal which was terrific considering another nearby marina was getting $3.50/gal! This is getting to be a very expensive hobby!

Pam and John, How fun, we never knew Waccamaw meant "hit on the head with a mallet". I'll tell you a funny story some time. Love your blog. Keep on chugging along. We're leaving Lake Sylvia for Miami today. Hope to see you soon.
