How's this for a great golf vacation
3/23/2011
Frequently, Myrtle Beach locals are asked, “What’s the best time of year for a golf package at the beach?” The immediate response is usually, “There really isn’t a bad time to visit and play some golf here.” We like to go beyond the stock answer and get specific. It doesn’t get any better than the days that surround that marvelous 2nd Sunday in April.
Like Augusta, GA the Myrtle Beach area in early April is gorgeous. Azaleas and dogwoods are in full bloom and the trees are beginning to show their summer leaves. Temperatures are warming and fairways and greens are on their way to a lush green color. The setting for golf is perfect.
Watching the best golfers in the world perform on one of golf’s most beautiful stages can follow your morning tee times. Many of the courses have large screen televisions in their lounge and there are countless venues in the area that will be showing the tournament.
Topping off your visit is the opportunity to rub elbows with professional golfers and celebrities at the 17thAnnual Hootie & the Blowfish Monday After the Masters Celebrity Pro-Am, April 11, 2011. Join the celebrities and professional golfers in this great charity event. Tickets are $15 while they last and are available by calling the House of Blues - 843.272.3000, The Dye Club Pro Shop – 843.399.7238 or Barefoot Resort Pro Shop – 843.390.3200.
