Coastal Carolina University offers the best of two worlds of coastal South Carolina. If you are looking for the mossy oaks and main street atmosphere of a small town, head to Conway and Georgetown. If you want the crowds and excitement of one of the largest resort areas on the East Coast, visit Myrtle Beach. Wherever you choose to spend your out-of-class hours, you’ll enjoy 215 days of sunshine per year and an average annual high of 75 degrees.
