As we mature, we still love the vacation spot that captured our hearts as youngsters. It’s Myrtle Beach, and it has lots to offer families, too. It’s still a blast, whether we do the same things with the kids than we did AS kids.

Search for sea glass

As you sift through the sand to find shells and shark’s teeth, watch for sea glass. It’s shards of broken bottles worn smooth over time in the surf, and it’s a beautiful find. They’re frosty in appearance and come in all colors, most commonly green.
