Bob and I had stopped at a Visitors Center on our way to our housesit and picked up some information on the area. Some of this included local events like farmers markets, art shows, etc. Today, we drove 6 miles to the community of Surfside Beach for their weekly Farmers Market.
The Farmers Market was relatively small, maybe about 20 booths, but it offered a range of items from produce to baked goods, prepared food and coffee, as well as crafted decor and jewelry.

Surfside Beach is a town of about 4,000 northeast of Murrells Inlet. It is part of the Grand Strand, which is an arc of beach land on the Atlantic Ocean in South Carolina which extends for more than 60 miles. After we had looked around the market, we walked a few blocks to the beach. The houses (on stilts) were cute, it had a small restaurant area, and the beach was gorgeous. Lovely, high 70 degree F, low humidity day to be outside.
