Axel’s verdict
7.8

Windy Hill and the southern North Myrtle Beach shore suit travelers who want beach days without making downtown Myrtle Beach their daily backdrop. Across U.S. 17, Barefoot Landing adds waterfront restaurants, shops and entertainment, with Alabama Theatre and House of Blues giving evenings a clear focus beyond the sand.

Treat the oceanfront and Barefoot Landing as separate outings, not one seamless pedestrian district. Central Myrtle Beach sightseeing adds another drive. U.S. 17 intersection improvements near Windy Hill began in September 2026, with overnight disruption possible until anticipated completion in June 2027. Skip it if frequent Boardwalk visits or a car-free itinerary are priorities.

Getting around
Route 17 calls at Barefoot Landing; the beach and shopping district need separate planning; from MYR, transfer from Route 7 to Route 17 downtown or take a taxi/rental car.
After dark
Barefoot Landing draws dinner and show crowds; the beach-focused surroundings offer a calmer alternative to downtown Myrtle Beach's strip.
