Congratulations to your cousin on the nuptials and to you for getting a beach trip! The best route from
Charlotte
to
Myrtle Beach
will take around three and a half hours down US-74 E, SC-9 S, and US-501 S.
Make sure you have all your beach essentials packed before heading out on your trip:
  • Shovel: If your tires get stuck in the sand, you’ll need to dig your way out.
  • Traction mats: Another useful tool if you’re stuck in the sand. You can use your floor mats in a pinch.
  • Tire pressure gauge: You need around 20 pounds of air pressure in your tire for safe driving on the sand.
  • Air pump: You’ll need to pump your tires up to safely drive on the road after your beach visit.
  • Water: Pack a few gallons of water in case you overheat on the sand.
Now that your car is beach-ready, it’s time to make sure your
car insurance
is, too! You might want to consider
comprehensive coverage
in case a storm blows up while you’re at the beach and your car gets damaged.
Not sure how to add coverage to your policy? No problem!
