Reasons to Visit Myrtle Beach in October
Ah, fall, when the weather is cool and the beach is still welcoming. Though many people may not think of coming to Myrtle Beach during October because it is thought of as a summer destination, Myrtle Beach in October is actually pretty awesome! Not only do visitors get to relish in beautiful fall coastal temperatures, but they also get to enjoy their favorite vacation spot without all of the crowds.
Here are some more reasons to visit Myrtle Beach in October:
Great Weather
Did you know that October is one of the best months to visit Myrtle Beach? In fact, we rated it the #1 month to visit due to low occupancy rates, low room rates, and great weather. The average air temperature is around 77º, and the average water temperature is around 72º, which is still great for visiting the beach! This perfect weather is wonderful for outdoor activities such as festivals, fishing, golfing, and much more!
Fall Festivals
Fall festivals and events are a big deal here in Myrtle Beach, and there are several exciting events that happen each year in the month of October. Here are the main events happening in October 2024:
Myrtle Beach Fall Bike Rally | The Myrtle Beach fall bike rally is Sept. 30-Oct. 6. Many events are slated throughout the fall rally weekend along the Grand Strand.
Pawleys Island Festival of Music and Art | Two weeks of cultural entertainment and music performances Oct. 4-19.

Indoor Water Parks and Pools
While there are often plenty of warms days to enjoy the beach or outdoor pool deck in October, indoor waterparks offer a welcome respite from any nip in the air. Many of our favorite kid-friendly hotels in Myrtle Beach have indoor waterparks and pools so you can splash away even in the fall.
Here are a few to check out:
