Come to Myrtle Beach and celebrate our freedom with fireworks, festivals and family fun! The Breakers Resort is in the heart of the 60-mile stretch of the Grand Strand, and home away from home to everything you need to enjoy family time and celebrations this July 4th.
There isnt’ a better way to watch the 4th of July fireworks than with your toes in the sand as the night sky lights up above the crashing ocean waves?
Of course, while there are lots of ways to keep entertained on the Grand Strand all summer long, the schedule of events really ramps up for the season’s biggest holiday weekend.
