A trip to Myrtle Beach wouldn’t be complete without enjoying some fresh seafood. With the Atlantic Ocean right outside your door and restaurants spread throughout the Grand Strand, there are plenty of ways to enjoy everything from local fish and shrimp to oysters, crab, and seafood boils.
Whether you prefer a casual meal after a day at the beach or an oceanfront dinner with a little more atmosphere, these seafood spots are worth adding to your Myrtle Beach itinerary.
Sea Captain’s House
For a classic Myrtle Beach seafood experience, Sea Captain’s House is hard to beat. This longtime oceanfront favorite has been serving seafood for decades and offers everything from fresh catch and crab cakes to shrimp and grits. Its location right along the ocean also makes it a great choice when you want your meal to come with a view.
It’s an especially good option for a relaxed dinner after spending the day at the beach. Grab a table, order your favorite seafood dish, and take in the sound of the waves while you enjoy your evening.
RipTydz Oceanfront Grille & Rooftop Bar
If you want seafood with an energetic atmosphere, head to RipTydz Oceanfront Grille & Rooftop Bar along the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk. The menu includes fresh fish entrees, steamed shrimp, seafood towers, fish tacos, and other coastal favorites.
The oceanfront location gives you plenty of scenery to enjoy while you eat, and the rooftop is an added bonus if you want to turn dinner into an evening out. After your meal, take a stroll along the Boardwalk and enjoy more of the Myrtle Beach atmosphere.
The Wicked Tuna at 2nd Avenue Pier
For a meal that combines seafood with an unforgettable setting, The Wicked Tuna at 2nd Avenue Pier is another great choice. Located right on the pier, the restaurant offers seafood, sushi, and beautiful ocean views.
The restaurant is also featured among Myrtle Beach’s notable seafood destinations, with a menu that includes oysters, shrimp, grouper, crab, and lobster.
Enjoy dinner overlooking the Atlantic, then take some time to walk along the pier before heading back to your resort.
Mrs. Fish Seafood Grill
If you’re looking for a more casual local seafood experience, Mrs. Fish Seafood Grill is worth checking out. The restaurant features daily fresh-catch specials for lunch and dinner, including tuna, grouper, shrimp, and other seafood.
It’s a great reminder that fresh seafood in Myrtle Beach doesn’t always have to mean a big waterfront restaurant. Sometimes, a casual local spot is exactly what you’re looking for after a day spent exploring and an evening meant for relaxing.
Chesapeake House
Located along Restaurant Row, Chesapeake House has been serving seafood on the Grand Strand since 1971. The menu features fresh-catch specials, shrimp, scallops, lobster, grouper, and steamed crab legs, along with Southern favorites such as its famous fish stew.
It’s a great option for groups with different tastes, since the menu includes plenty of seafood and non-seafood dishes.
