The Waccamaw Neck Bikeway is arguably the best cycling trail on the Grand Strand. This 16-mile paved path connects Murrells Inlet to Pawleys Island, winding through some of South Carolina's most beautiful coastal scenery.

Trail Overview

The bikeway is fully paved and flat, making it accessible for cyclists of all skill levels. The trail passes through salt marshes, alongside live oaks draped in Spanish moss, and through several charming coastal communities.

Access Points

You can start your ride at several points along the trail, including Murrells Inlet, Litchfield Beach, and Pawleys Island. Each section offers its own unique scenery and charm.

Tips for Your Ride

Bring plenty of water, especially in summer. The trail is exposed in some sections, so sunscreen is essential. Early morning rides offer the best experience with cooler temperatures and beautiful light.
