National and regional coverage continued to spotlight Myrtle Beach and surrounding communities as highly desirable destinations for travel, retirement, and relocation, with Travel + Leisure naming South Carolina the most popular state to move to in 2025 and identifying Myrtle Beach as the top city, praised for its beaches, wildlife, and golf. The region received significant attention for its affordability, appearing in multiple national roundups focused on budget-friendly winter travel, holiday deals, safe and welcoming towns, and hidden gem getaways. Brookgreen Gardens emerged as a major cultural and seasonal highlight, with features in Garden & Gun and Country Living, including national recognition of its Nights of a Thousand Candles event, while Huntington Beach State Park earned distinction as South Carolina’s top birding destination. Culinary and local businesses were also prominently featured, from seafood buffets and local bars to cozy cocktail spots and iconic Southern flavors. Coverage further emphasized enhanced travel accessibility, with Allegiant and Breeze Airways announcing new nonstop routes to Myrtle Beach in 2026, reinforcing the destination’s growing national connectivity and broad appeal.
