Murrells Inlet has always remembered things the water way.
In tides and returnings. In boats that came back at dusk. In stories passed quietly across docks, porches, and kitchen tables — often without realizing they were stories at all.
Murrells Inlet Story exists to hold space for those memories. Not to define the Inlet, but to listen to it. This is a place for reflection, belonging, and remembering the life shaped by water, work, and time.
What This Is
This site is part of the Grand Strand Story Network, a shared effort to preserve the living history of the communities that make up the Grand Strand.
Murrells Inlet’s story is shaped by the meeting of land and water — by generations who learned to read the tides, respect the seasons, and stay rooted through change.
