Huntington Beach offers the best preserved beach on the Grand Strand. We found this area to be quieter and less populated then the beaches in the Surfside/Myrtle Beach area, yet the waves were better for the kids to enjoy. Not only is the beach great but the park’s freshwater lagoon, saltmarsh, and maritime forest are outstanding examples of the state’s natural coastal environment. The park is widely recognized as one of the best birding sites along the East Coast. Huntington Beach is also the site of the historic "Atalaya" castle.
There is an admission fee of $5 per adult/youth age 16 - 64 and out-of state seniors; $3 per youth/child age 6-15; Free for children 5 and younger, and SC Seniors 65 and older. The park is open Saturday - Thursday 6am - 6pm and on Friday 6am - 8pm.
