9. Kentucky: Myrtle Beach
While in-state destinations like Lake Cumberland offer solid boating and freshwater recreation, Kentucky residents overwhelmingly flock eastward to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, for their classic summer ocean vacation. Located just a reasonable day’s drive away, this vibrant destination serves as Kentucky’s adopted coastline. Its famous Grand Strand offers 60 miles of continuous Atlantic shore, massive seafood buffets, championship golf courses, and lively boardwalk entertainment, making it the undisputed heavyweight of regional family beach getaways.
