3 Best Shopping in Myrtle Beach and the Grand Strand, South Carolina

South Carolina's only Hard Rock Cafe and Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville restaurant are among the many themed restaurants at this shopping complex set around Lake Broadway, where you can soar through the sky on a zipline or take a dizzying speedboat ride. It's the area's biggest mall, with shops ranging from the Man Cave Store and a Harley-Davidson outfitter to the Southern Living store, featuring home items curated by the magazine. Among the many attractions in the complex are Pavilion Park's kids' and thrill rides, a Topgolf, and the WonderWorks interactive museum, where kids can spend hours exploring and adults can strap into one of several simulators that send you twirling at dizzying speeds.

This complex features more than 100 specialty shops, bars, and restaurants, plus amusement rides and the Crooked Hammock Brewery. Restaurants fronting the intracoastal waterway include Greg Norman's Australian Grille and LuLu's. In summer, check out the fireworks displays every Monday night.

There are more than 100 mostly name-brand shops selling everything from high-end apparel and candy to Harley-Davidson- and comic-book-themed gifts.
