State Parks in Myrtle Beach

Along with being one of the largest up and coming urban areas on the East Coast, Myrtle Beach and the state of South Carolina are extremely interested in maintaining it's peaceful existence with area wild life. The State Parks in Myrtle Beach are well known among bird watchers for the maritime forests which are natural habitats to many rare species of birds.
 
 
 
Huntington Beach is also home to Atalaya Castle, which in and of itself is a magical experience. Atalaya Castle was once home to Anna Hyatt Huntington who created the beautiful sculptures of live animals that you can see across the road at Brookgreen Gardens. Visit her studio in Atalaya Castle and feel the spacious light in this room. The stables where the animals were kept are here on the grounds as well and tour guides are available to help you find what was where long ago.
 
     
Myrtle Beach State Park offers a pier for fishing, nature activities for children in their nature center and a great place for a cook out. Both parks offer some of the least crowded shoreline in Myrtle Beach and hiking paths through the forests.   When you visit Huntington Beach State Park, be sure to take a slow ride across the inlet waterway and keep your eyes open for the alligators often to be seen sleeping on the rocks.
