Destin vs Myrtle Beach for July 4?


Posted: Apr 22, 2010

We are wanting to drive and spend a long weekend there.  We love the beach, but we have small children and would like to find somewhere that might have a children's pool/waterpark type play area as well. 

Opinions?

Jeckyl Island, Georgia has a beach and a fun water park, it's not very expensive and they have a carnival and fireworks on the beach for the 4th.

we are in GA - sounds fun but

we are meeting another family, and it was their idea. They want to go to Myrtle Beach or Destin, but they are letting me decide:)

Thanks!

Why don't you consider camping at Ocean Lakes in Myrtle Beach? Fantastic campground with lots for the kiddies to do. We are senior citizens and love it there. It is right on the beach with a fantastic water park type pool area.

vacation at Destin - tam

I live 45 miles north of Destin. There is a water park and a small amusement park area, mini golf for kids and a lot of the condos and motels have kiddie pools. There will also be fireworks off the Gulf on the 4th of July. This area is beautiful with white sand and emerald green water, but usually traffic is congested at this time of the year.

THANK YOU ALL! - nm

with a xenophobic president who fears and loathes refugees. Yet the Americans who voted for him at the highest rate (higher even than native-born “whites”) were foreign-born one-time refugees. The media says America is blighted by an isolationist know-nothing president who ignorantly, chauvinistically and provincially shirks our nation’s international commitments, especially regarding common defense. Yet this week this president got a rousing reception in the capital of a nation 7000 m ...

The typical U.S. household headed by a person age 65 or older has a net worth 47 times greater than a household headed by someone under 35, according to an analysis of census data released Monday. They like to refer to us as senior citizens, old fogies, geezers, and in some cases dinosaurs. Some of us are "Baby Boomers" getting ready to retire. Others have been retired for some time. We walk a little slower these days and our eyes and hearing are not what they once were. We worked hard, ...
