Geocache Description:

This geocache is placed with permission of the Myrtle Beach State Park, located at 4401 South Kings Hwy, Myrtle Beach, SC.  The Myrtle Beach State Park is 312 acres of opportunities for camping, hiking, fishing. birding, educational programs and equestrian trails.  There is a fee for park entrance.


F.B. loves going to Myrtle Beach State Park, as well as other South Carolina State Parks.  Being a very popular place to visit during the day or staying at one of the cabins or one of the great campsites, makes for great memories and fun for yourself and your family or friends with you.  One of F.B.'s favorite activities is being on the beach, enjoying the sun and taking advantage of the many activities you can do while at the Myrtle Beach State Park.  He loves to attend park ranger programs.  They are always fun and you can learn a lot.  He enjoys walking on the pier, looking at whatever catches that those fishing are bringing up on their lines.  F.B. enjoys the many trails to hike along.  It's really nice to see the informative signage periodically that tells you about the area you are in.  He likes to picnic at one of the many picnic tables or shelters and just enjoy the breeze rustling through the trees.  With the Myrtle Beach State Park being as popular as it is, and one of four immediate coastline state parks, no wonder it is a "must visit" by tourists and locals alike.  The park staff are very friendly and helpful.  They also want your stay to be as pleasant and memorable as possible.
