Yes you can hunt myrtle beach. I was on the beach last week just stay off the dunes and cover your holes. The police travel the beach all day and most of the night. Have fun and hope you find a pocket full.

I hunted there in November with no problems. I second Casper 2, Jim's book is a great resource for water hunting. He is an expert on Myrtle Beach.

Be careful of the Turtle Eggs! And beware, the city is infested with green lasers. All the beach stores sell these to people and the people WILL shine them at you. Have fun!

I was there in December and it was sanded in real bad. I couldn't hardly get a signal in the wet sand. I moved up to the white sand and didn't find much but my buddy got a gold ring.

Thanks for the imput folks, heading there in a week. Now to figure how to mount a drink holder on my detector....the wife and daughter have already advised they will not acknowledge my existence when I bring it out on the beach.

They say that now but the first bling you find you will not be able to run the off. Lol

I might put on black socks pulled to my knees, shorts pulled way up, goofy hat. Then just keep walking in circles around them..
