OK, so our waves are not exactly built like those at Waikiki, water monsters that tower over you, but we have some action, nevertheless. Surfers find challenges for boards and wind-surfing. Watch the weather. Depending on the wind direction, water sports enthusiasts can find plenty of fun out here. Then grab a bite to eat at the pier or 3500. People come out in the water in all seasons.

Everyone has his and her own favorite beach stories, perhaps even this “ghost” crab who lives here. While vacationing, with little ghost crabs nearby, share some tall ghost tales among family and friends. Can’t think of any? Check out the new book Helping Ghosts: A Guide to Understanding Lost Spirits by Louis Charles.

Called Cycle to the Sea, this group of resolute bicyclists stayed at Prince from April 24 to 27. The group raises funds and awareness for adaptive sports, the Adaptive Sports and Adventures Program (ASAP). Some pedal without arms or sight. The ride is held every spring and involves athletes with some physical disabilities, cycling with handcycles and/or tandem bikes. The event helps sustain a low-cost program for youth and adults with physical challenges.

Last weekend was Memorial Day weekend, and that means bikers among other traditions here along the Grand Strand. Lots of bikers. Vendors, bike builders, bike parks, stunt shows, lots of music, and plenty of chances for old friends to get together and everyone to meet and mingle, making new friends. The majority spent Friday and Saturday here, showing off their bikes, enjoying cookouts and street parties, and generally having a great time.
