Exploring Downtown Conway: A Local's Guide

Discovering the Historic Beauty
Conway, South Carolina may not be as well-known as its neighboring city, Myrtle Beach, but it certainly has its own charm and character. As a local, I have always been drawn to the historic beauty of downtown Conway. From the picturesque Riverwalk to the quaint local shops, there is something for everyone to enjoy.

Strolling Along the Riverwalk
A visit to Conway is not complete without taking a leisurely walk along the Waccamaw River on the Riverwalk. This scenic trail offers stunning views of the river, as well as the historic buildings and marinas along its banks. It is the perfect place to relax and take in the natural beauty of the area. Be sure to keep an eye out for wildlife such as birds, turtles, and even the occasional dolphin.

Reliving the Past at the Horry County Museum
If you are interested in history, then a visit to the Horry County Museum is a must. Located in the heart of downtown Conway, this museum offers a glimpse into the past of this area. From Native American artifacts to exhibits on early industries in the region, you will leave with a newfound appreciation for the rich history of Conway and its surrounding areas. Plus, admission is free!

Shopping and Dining on Main Street
Main Street in Conway is full of locally owned shops, boutiques, and restaurants. It is the perfect place to find unique gifts and souvenirs, or to grab a bite to eat at one of the charming cafes or restaurants. My personal favorite is The Trestle, which serves delicious Southern comfort food in a cozy atmosphere. You can't go wrong with any of the options on Main Street, but be sure to save room for dessert at the famous River City Cafe.

Experience Local Culture at the Conway Farmer's Market
Every Saturday morning from May to October, the Conway Farmer's Market comes to life with local farmers, artisans, and vendors selling their goods. This is the perfect opportunity to sample some of the best fresh produce, baked goods, and homemade crafts in the area. The market also often features live music and special events, making it a fun outing for the whole family.

Make Conway Your Next Destination
As a local, I am proud to call Conway my home and I love sharing its hidden gems with visitors. Whether you are looking for a peaceful stroll along the river or a fun day of shopping and dining, downtown Conway has it all. So, next time you are planning a trip to Myrtle Beach, be sure to take a day and explore all that Conway has to offer. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
