7) South Carolina
Beach goers delight in the array of choices on the coast of South Carolina. Visitors flock here to take in the surf and sand. Whether active or relaxed, there’s plenty to enjoy. Hilton Head Island is among the most popular, famed for its magnificent 12 miles of shoreline, and being a golfer’s paradise with 24 courses to choose from. Hilton Head isn’t the only popular beach side destination, however. Over 14 million people visit Myrtle Beach annually, making it the most popular tourist stop in the state. Boasting incredible beaches, crystal blue waters and white sand shores, it also offers the most inspiring sunsets and sunrises. There’s also plenty to do when you’re not working on your tan. Take a stroll along the Boardwalk, where you can ride the SkyWheel for a birds-eye view. There’s no shortage of shopping and dining opportunities, with local seafood delights on the menus.
