Best Disc Golf Courses in the Myrtle Beach Area

  By  Chris Mowder
Disc Golf Myrtle Beach

Myrtle Beach is famous worldwide its 80 championship golf course and its over-the-top mini golf, but don’t overlook the local disc golf scene, which has grown rapidly over the past decade.

With nearly a dozen public courses ranging from quick 9-hole warmups to tightly wooded challenges, the area offers a great lineup of beginner and family-friendly courses as well as a legit lineup for players who know their hyzers from their thumbers.

The Beach also hosts several great events — including the PDGA's Myrtle Beach Open — which continue to grow in talent and turnout each year.

Whether you're bagging new courses, squeezing in a vacation round, or prepping for your next sanctioned event, there's a course here with your name on it. So pack your bag, trust your line, and come see why Myrtle Beach is more than just the Golf Capital of the World ... it’s a rising hub for disc golfers, too.

The Boneyard Conway Disc Golf Course
1. The Boneyard at Smith Jones Park
719 Smith Jones St, Conway

A true local favorite and an 18-hole gem, The Boneyard blends open shots with tight, wooded fairways for a course that challenges without overwhelming. With excellent signage, good flow, and some unique distances and hole layouts, this park is ideal for both competitive throwers and laid-back players. Each hole also includes a very short tee designed for kids and beginners, making it especially accessible for new players. Bonus points for its peaceful vibes and low traffic.

Coastal Carolina Disc Golf Course
2. Coastal Carolina University
University Boulevard, Conway

Located on the beautiful CCU campus, this 9-hole course is a flat, open loop perfect for students, beginners, or anyone short on time. Shorter holes make this course easy to enjoy for casual players or those just getting into the game. Keep an eye out for campus traffic during the school year.

East Bay Park Georgetown
3. East Bay Park
515 E Bay St., Georgetown

Set against the backdrop of Winyah Bay, this scenic 9-hole course is ideal for a breezy, picturesque round. The sea air can definitely toy with your discs, but that's half the fun. It's a great pit stop when exploring historic Georgetown, which offers beautifully preserved homes, a vibrant downtown, the charming Harborwalk, and a variety of great local restaurants. Just a short drive south of Murrells Inlet or Pawleys Island, it's well worth the detour for a round and a stroll through one of South Carolina's most charming coastal towns.

Loris Nature Park Disc Golf
4. Lion’s Den at Loris Nature Park
300 Loris Lions Rd, Loris

This 18-hole course winds through the peaceful woods of Loris Nature Park, offering technical challenges for experienced players and a calm, shady environment for everyone else. The park itself recently underwent upgrades and now features an inclusive playground with zero-entry areas, rubberized surfaces, toddler-friendly equipment, walking trails, picnic tables, bathrooms, and a fitness area, making it an excellent spot for the whole family. It’s a little ways out from the beach, but worth the drive for those seeking quiet rounds and great park amenities.

Sherwood Forest Conway Disc Golf
5. Sherwood Forest Park
1601 Sherwood Drive, Conway

This short and fun 9-hole course is an excellent place for kids and beginners to learn the game. While it's designed within a small city park with approachability in mind, the scattered trees and holes along a small ravine offer just enough challenge to keep things engaging. A great spot for families or casual rounds in Conway.

Socastee Recreation Park Disc Golf
6. Socastee Recreation Park
7485 Butler Rd, Myrtle Beach (Socastee Area)

This 19-hole course is popular among locals for good reason. It's the granddaddy of local disc golf courses, which has developed into one of the area's best in the past decade-plus of work from the local disc golf community. It combines open and wooded holes with excellent shot variety across a challenging par-66 layout. Most holes offer two sets of tees, providing options for players of different skill levels. The course loops throughout the woods and around the park's soccer fields, with bathrooms, parking, a playground, and other amenities. 

Pro tip: Because of it's location, it can get buggy at certain times of day or seasonally throughout the year, so you may want to pack some bug spray.

local's fav
Splinter City Disc Golf Course Myrtle Beach
7. Splinter City Disc Golf Course
3383 Splinter City Rd., Myrtle Beach (The Market Common Area)

This PDGA-sanctioned 18-hole course is a favorite for its flat, open layout that rewards players with big arms. Located on the former Myrtle Beach Air Force base, the course sits where a "splinter city" of wooden military buildings was rapidly constructed to support the growing base during World War II. Today this parkland-style course features long fairways with holes range from around 230 feet to a whopping 600 feet on the challenging par-4 hole five. Well maintained by the city and thoughtfully designed, this course delivers a smooth, rewarding round for serious players and casual disc flingers alike.

Swashbuckler Disc Golf Course Myrtle Beach
8. Swashbuckler Disc Golf Course

314 Withers Swash Dr., Myrtle Beach

This short, woodsy 18-hole course is tucked into an urban area of Myrtle Beach at Withers Swash Park. It  features DISCatcher Pro targets, concrete tees, and subtle elevation changes. Expect many old growth trees, some water hazards along the swash, and tight fairways that require finesse over power. Though compact, it’s has some unique and technical layouts that appeal to casual players and seasoned disc golfers alike. It's street parking only, but there is normally plenty of spaces along Withers Swash Drive.

Tupelo Bay Golf Photo
9. Tupelo Bay Golf Center
1800 U.S. 17 Business, Murrells Inlet (Garden City Area)

This lightly wooded, mostly flat 9-hole course is set on a lighted par-3 ball golf course, with baskets positioned next to every green. It’s a unique hybrid setup where disc golfers share space with traditional golfers and can take advantage of carts, food, beverages, and even night play until 11 p.m. Adult rounds are $14 for 9 holes or $20 for 18. Juniors play for just $7 or $11, and disc rentals are available for $3— so even if you don’t bring your own gear, you’re good to go. Beyond disc golf, Tupelo Bay is a full-service Myrtle Beach golf facility with an 18-hole executive course, mini golf course, a driving range, foot golf, snack bar, putting green and practice sandtrap.

Waccamaw River Park Disc Golf Course
10. Waccamaw River Park
1050 Depot St., Conway

This wooded 9-hole course (formerly 11 holes) hugs the Waccamaw River and offers tight lines and beautiful scenery that cater to all skill levels. Though it's still a work in progress, and can be a bit tricky to navigate for first-timers without a map, the layout is varied and rewarding. It’s nestled in a cypress swamp, so expect it to get a little swampy and buggy after a good rain. Accessibility is limited due to natural debris and uneven surfaces, but overall it's a peaceful, lightly trafficked for players looking for a secluded round.


 

Warrior Run Disc Golf at Stables Park Pawleys Island
11. Warrior Run Disc Golf Course
2400 Petigru Drive, Pawleys Island (Stables Park) 

A solid beginner-friendly course with a beautiful natural setting and thoughtful design. Warrior Run plays through a former horse stable property and features live oaks lining the fairways, sandy soil, and a protected Carolina Bay wetland nearby. The flat terrain and stands of trees provide accessible challenges for all skill levels, with stormwater ponds adding variety on a few holes. With DISCatcher targets, natural tees, and a cart-friendly layout, it’s a peaceful place to throw just minutes from the beach.
