Where are you staying? If you are staying in North MB, restaurants and things to do are different than if you are staying in South MB, i.e., it may not be worth driving from the north to south to Murrells Inlet for restaurants.

I had a great meal at Murrell's Inlet last trip at one of the restaurants GoT recommended. It was wonderful - and the boardwalk along the water was a great after dinner stroll. I'll see if I can find the thread with GoT's recommendations.

This is not the thread I remembered, but GoT's recommendations are there. I ate at Creek Ratz.

But, to eat in Murrell's Inlet is a hop skip and jump for GoTravel. Traffic in July is horrific in Myrtle Beach. From the Marriott to Murrell's Inlet is a 45 minute drive at best. There are plenty of good restaurants in the area you will be in cwojo.

My favorite restaurants in Myrtle Beach are probably not the usual favorites, but here are mine -
Bangkok House for Thai
Sea Captains House for almost anything on their menu
Bonefish Grill for martinis and lobster
They have an Islamorada Fish Company now in MB and the Smoked Fish Dip is one of my favorite appetizers at the first one in Islamorada in the Keys. I had planned to go there on the last MB trip, but went to K&W Cafeteria to get my veggie fix that night instead.
Here's a link to their menu -

I didn't have any trouble with traffic on 6/20 of last year. Let's see, I left a conference at the Marriott at the end of the work day, stopped by the Hampton Inn on 75th to change clothes, drove down 17 (around, not through MB on Business 17), ate at Creek Ratz, drove a bit further south on 17 past Brookgreen and Huntington Beach SP, turned around, mailed a letter from the MI post office and was back online at the Hampton Inn on 75th (north of MB) and was online by 7:23pm.
I'm in MB on business several times a year and wanted to try something new and different. I truly enjoyed the change of pace and dining by the marsh at Murrells Inlet. It was worth the 20.76 mile drive (one way) to me - but then I like driving and seeing new places and scouting out things to see the next day or on the next trip.
I'm glad GoT recommended Murrells Inlet because I enjoyed it very much. Evidently, not everyone does/ would.
