Beachwear Stores
The sun and sand are free, but you need some supplies before you hit the beach. The beach stores dotting corners and roads throughout the Grand Strand have become just as much a part of the vacation experience as the ocean itself. Whether you’re looking for sand buckets, beach chairs, souvenirs or t-shirts, you’ll find everything Myrtle Beach in one of these area stores.
Ron Jon Surf Shop
Ron Jon Surf Shop boasts two locations on the Grand Strand: one at Broadway at the Beach and one at Barefoot Landing. Both locations offer customers a variety of beachwear such as bathing suits, cover-ups, and clothing, as well as beach toys, surfboards, and more.
