Fishing Piers in Myrtle Beach

10 listings · ranked by rating & reviews · updated 2026

Fishing piers are among the easiest ways to get on the water without a boat - a stable platform out over the surf or a bay, often with railings, benches, lights for night fishing and a bait shop nearby. Many public piers are free to walk and fish, while some municipal and private piers charge a modest daily fishing fee, and a state saltwater or freshwater license may still be required depending on the pier and state. They are a favorite for families and beginners because the access is simple and you can catch a real variety of species right from the deck. The listings here help you find piers by city and state, with what to expect on arrival.

FAQ

Fishing Piers in Myrtle Beach - common questions

How many fishing piers are there in Myrtle Beach? +
Lure Compass lists 10 listings for fishing piers in Myrtle Beach, SC.
Who has the best-rated fishing piers in Myrtle Beach? +
By Google review volume, Pier 14 Seafood Restaurant, Gift Shop, and Fishing Pier is the most-reviewed fishing piers listing in Myrtle Beach (4.5★, 9,039 reviews). Rankings follow review count, not paid placement.
Do you need a license to fish off a pier? +
It depends on the pier and the state. Some public piers operate under a blanket license that covers everyone fishing from them, while at others each angler needs their own state license. Check the pier operator or your state wildlife agency for the specific rule before you fish.
Are fishing piers free? +
Many public piers are free to fish, but some municipal and privately run piers charge a daily fishing fee, and there may be a separate parking cost. Fees, hours and any license requirement vary by location - confirm with the pier before you go.
What can you catch from a fishing pier? +
That varies by region and season, and pier regulars are usually happy to share what is biting. Reviews and listings here can point you to well-reviewed piers by city and state, but the pier operator or a nearby bait shop is your best source for current conditions and what is running.
How much does a fishing charter cost in Myrtle Beach? +
Myrtle Beach charters typically run about $450-$1,200 depending on the trip. Short inshore and nearshore creek and inlet trips are the most affordable; full-day Gulf Stream runs for mahi and tuna sit at the top because of the fuel and distance. Shared party-boat seats are cheaper per person. Confirm the all-in price with the operator.
What fish can you catch out of Myrtle Beach? +
Inshore around Murrells Inlet you target redfish, speckled trout and flounder. Nearshore brings Spanish and king mackerel, and offshore trolling out to the Gulf Stream produces mahi, tuna and wahoo, with snapper and grouper on the live bottom.
When is the best time to fish Myrtle Beach? +
Late spring through fall is prime. Spanish and king mackerel show off the beach in the warm months, inshore redfish and trout stay active spring through fall, and Gulf Stream trolling for mahi peaks in summer. Weather and sea conditions drive whether offshore trips run.
