Myrtle Beach Crowned America's #1 Beach in National Google Consumer Survey – Landslide Victory
For an unbiased, data-driven ranking of America's best beaches, the Tipspoke team employed a rigorous four-step process using Google Consumer Surveys to poll thousands of people nationwide. Myrtle Beach claimed the top spot decisively.
While countless opinion-driven lists rank the best U.S. beaches, Stacey Sao, lead researcher at recreational hub Tipspoke, sought a truly objective answer. Her methodical four-part approach, powered by Google Consumer Surveys, delivered clear results: Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, emerged as the undisputed champion.
"Myrtle Beach didn’t just win—it dominated with over 87% more votes than the runner-up," noted Ms. Sao, Tipspoke's CEO. "A deeper look reveals why: the incredible variety of activities on and around the beach, from amusement and water parks to golf courses and wildlife adventures."
"Myrtle Beach continues to excel in national rankings because nearly 18 million visitors know our beaches are clean, safe, and welcoming," said Brad Dean, president and CEO of the Myrtle Beach Area Chamber of Commerce. "What sets us apart is the vast array of attractions and events for all ages, couples, and groups, paired with the genuine Southern hospitality that keeps visitors returning year after year."
This survey's credibility stems from four key strengths: (1) Broad U.S. distribution, not limited to niche audiences; (2) Open-ended question allowing respondents to name their favorite beach without prompts; (3) Focus on overall preference, not single criteria; (4) Random delivery to thousands of U.S. adults via Google Consumer Surveys until over 1,000 responses were collected.
