As one of the original 13 colonies in the United States, South Carolina has experienced the evolution of the U.S. and many of its trials and tribulations. However, this history might sometimes be an afterthought because of the state’s exciting coastal attractions like Myrtle Beach, a popular southeastern beach spot and a budget-friendly golf destination. However, if you’re looking for more than relaxation and want to incorporate South Carolina’s beautiful Atlantic coast and American history, head further south to Charleston.
