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. |
