With plenty of things to do to celebrate a date night, an anniversary, or any special occasion, Myrtle Beach is a top vacation spot for couples. From gardens to golf, adventure and romance abound along the Grand Strand. Here are some of our favorite things to do for couples in Myrtle Beach:
Visit Brookgreen Gardens for a romantic stroll through this unique garden, featuring sculptures, art installations, and beautiful foliage and florals. Brookgreen Gardens is open daily, and the property hosts seasonal events that draw locals and visitors alike to enjoy the space in new ways. The most popular and arguably the most romantic event hosted at Brookgreen Gardens is Nights of a Thousand Candles, when the gardens are lit by the soft glow of thousands of hand-lit candles and string lights.
Myrtle Beach is home to countless delicious and fun restaurants that are great for date nights and romantic meals, but why not take it a step further with dinner and a show? Get all dolled up and solve a 1920s murder mystery with a side of authentic Italian food at Riga Tony’s, indulge in decadent Polynesian food at the Polynesian Fire Luau, or cheer on your favorite knight at Medieval Times.
