Piers: A Perfect Place for Photos
For photos out into the ocean, straight down at the waves, or of the skyline, it’s a great vantage point from which to click and share. Did you know there are nine piers in the Myrtle Beach area? Here are some of our favorites!
Apache Pier
There’s a rest spot halfway down if you get tired walking it! At the Apache Family Campground, it’s the longest wooden pier on the East Coast, at 1,206 feet — almost a quarter-mile.
Pier 14
Make sure to visit the gift shop and restaurants at Pier 14, a Myrtle Beach tradition. You’ll find it near oceanfront properties on the boardwalk.
Cherry Grove Fishing Pier
On the north end of North Myrtle Beach, this pier is a haven for fishermen. If the fish aren’t biting, hit the Boardwalk Beach Cafe next door.
