Orlando to North Myrtle Beach..

Will be doing a trip again to Florida and then to North Myrtle Beach... Usually I hop off 95 onto 17 and run it all the way in.... Is it any faster staying on 95 and running up north ... Maybe to Conway???
  • You bet. Stay on 95 until you get to the Florence exit. Then 301 and 501 all the way to Conway. You miss the entire southern half of 17 and 17 Business.
  • Then hit 22 or 31 to North Myrtle Beach. You will get off at Kings Road, by the Walmart, and on the road to Myrtle Beach Travel Park, and Apache

    North side campgrounds this is best route.
    If south end campgrounds off I-95 to sc31 to us501 to sc544 right at/past Conway and take that to us17 wher it meets 544 and come out in front of Oceanlakes and lakewood about 2miles from Pirateland.

  • Or you can take US-378, exit 135 over to Conway. Lot less traffic than US-501.

    That is the route I was looking at on the map.... How is highway 378??? Compared to say...RT 9... RT 17......
  • It's been years since I took US-378 out of Myrtle Beach. We had traffic on US-501 going to MB, and were in it going out when I just decided to take US-378 out of Conway. No traffic, speed limit plus drive all the way to Sumter. At that time the pavement was good and traffic was light. It is my plan to take US-378 this year when we go back. If you’re going or leaving on a Saturday US-501 will be jam packed
