As summer draws to a close, changes are set to occur in Myrtle Beach, particularly regarding the regulation of dogs, bicycles, and umbrellas. Starting from the day after Labor Day, the seasonal rules that governed these aspects during the summer will officially end, outlining new regulations for beachgoers.
For those who enjoy cycling along the beachfront and pet owners who desire to take their pooches along for a day out in the sand, the end of the summer rules indeed brings good news. From Tuesday after Labor Day, dogs and bicycles will be allowed on the beach at any time of the day.
In addition, beachgoers are also granted permission to use tents and canopies up to 12 by 12 square feet. Encouraging a family-friendly and comfortable atmosphere, these changes provide an opportunity for the public to enjoy the beach’s amenities to the fullest.
Despite the relaxed rules regarding dogs and bicycles, restrictions surrounding umbrella use still hold firm. While beachgoers can avail the use of umbrellas, the placement of these umbrellas must be aligned with or positioned behind the lifeguards. This rule ensures that lifeguards maintain a clear line of sight towards the sea, facilitating their ability to swiftly respond to any incidents that may occur.
Nonetheless, it is good to remember the rules that persist all round the year, including the prohibition of alcohol, glass containers, and certain styles of swimsuits on the beach. Public conduct is keenly observed with rules against disturbing or damaging the dunes, sand fencing or the sea grass oats. Furthermore, beachgoers are urged to adhere to certain restrictions around swimming, fishing, fire building, littering, and commercial activity.
Non-compliance to these regulations could lead to a conviction with criminal penalties that include a fine of up to $500 and/or 30 days in jail.
The adjustments to the rules of dog, bicycle, and umbrella use on Myrtle Beach aim to provide a more inclusive and enjoyable atmosphere for the public, while simultaneously maintaining the safety and cleanliness of the beach. As Labor Day marks a transition phase, beachgoers are expected to adapt to these new changes and continue to respect the year-round restrictions.
