Ocean Water - To ensure the quality of the Grand Strand’s ocean water, the communities along these golden shores have enacted a voluntary summer-long water-testing program. Using 20 sites along the coastline, the program meets EPA standards, established in cooperation with the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control. Over the last 30 years, the lowest temperature Grand Strand ocean water has reached is 47oF (in January) and the highest is 88oF (in July).

One of the most popular parks in South Carolina, Huntington Beach State Park is noted for its diverse habitats and a wide variety of wildlife. The park’s pristine beaches, salt marshes, and freshwater lagoons are home to American alligators, bald eagles, osprey, and nesting loggerhead sea turtles. The park is also one of the east coast’s finest birding sites.
