Visit Myrtle Beach Unveils Book, Bolsters Programs for Visitors with Autism

Myrtle Beach’s Continued Commitment toward Autism

Focus on inclusivity and comfort for all visitors remains an essential part of the strategy for Myrtle Beach. In a pioneering initiative to make the area a sensory-friendly destination, an innovative children’s book titled “ Splish, Splash, Squawk! Finding Joy in a Sensory-Friendly Vacation ” has been released. This move is targeted at visitors with autism and is a testament to the city’s commitment to promoting a welcoming environment for all families.

Novel Collaboration for an Inspired Book

The creation of this inspiring book is a collaborative effort spearheaded by Myrtle Beach and put together by the talented author and illustrator, Lynda Farrington Wilson. It is noteworthy that Wilson often visits Myrtle Beach with her son who has autism. The project draws from this personal experience, making it a unique tool for fostering communication and understanding.

City officials are enthusiastic that “Splish, Splash, Squawk! Finding Joy in a Sensory-Friendly Vacation” will inspire families with children on the autism spectrum to explore the joys of travelling together. Information on retailers and associated events for the book launch will be made available in the weeks ahead.

Expanding Initiatives: A TV Series On The Horizon

Myrtle Beach’s commitment extends beyond the publishing of the book. In a bid to further tackle the issue on a more significant scale, a trailer for a new television series titled “Traveling the Spectrum” was also released last week.

Myrtle Beach’s Autism-friendly Focus

Since 2016, communities along the Grand Strand have been steadfast in their commitment to creating autism- and sensory-friendly destinations. This consistency has produced an array of autism-friendly offerings, including accessible trip-planning resources. Myrtle Beach’s commitment to fostering an inclusive destination sends a powerful message of understanding and accommodation to families around the globe.
