Surfside Beach and Garden City Beach are the ideal destination locales for Myrtle Beach family vacations. Both small towns are much quieter than Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle Beach and offer the intimacy that some families crave while on vacation. Take the kids to Wild Water & Wheels Water Park or the in-laws to Legends in Concert. Spend long days on the beach and a short amount of time in the car-as everything is in close driving distance!
