What is the Grand Strand? I'm not trying to be "cute," I've just never heard of it and don't know where/what it is.

I believe the Grand Strand a stretch of beaches in South Carolina. The most prominent or famous beach in the area is Myrtle Beach.
The Jersey Shore has Asbury Park, Atlantic City, Brigantine, Cape May, Ocean City, Point Pleasant, Seaside Heights and Wildwood among many others. Personally, I don't see the appeal of the Grand Strand. The Jersey Shore gets my vote quite easily. |

There are other areas of the Grand strand such as Pawleys Island, Murrells Inlet, Garden City, Surfside Beach, N. Myrtle Beach, Conway, Briarcliffe Acres, Little River, and Litchfield Beach. |

I have never heard of the Grand Strand. Don't think that is a very well-known area.

Myrtle is pretty gross, but the areas of Litchfield and Pawleys Island are great, NJ is just plain gross with all of those "snooky" looking chicks walking around............

Are we really going in this route? 
I have no problem dishing out some stereotypes of The Grand Strand myself. The Redneck Riviera is the one most commonly used terms to refer to this area and for good reason. |

Thanks for the definition, everyone. I went to Myrtle Beach once, though it was in the early 1990s and I was a young child. All I remember is the sand was gray and hard like concrete. I haven't been to other beaches in the area, so I won't cast a vote.

Don't you love that 0.6 miles of "sleazeside heights" is the world's image of 130 miles of Jersey Shore? |
