Overview

While much of Myrtle Beach nightlife involves loud reggae and overpriced mango daiquiris, there are still a number of places to dance the shag, a series of jitterbug-style moves set to old-fashioned rhythm and blues music. Many bars have cover charges on the weekends. Things get rowdy during spring Bike Week.
