Overview
Rich in Revolution and Civil War history, South Carolina also has fantastic beaches. Its Grand Strand, a 60-mile crescent of beach along the state’s coast, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country. Myrtle Beach, located in the center of the Grand Strand, has become one of the East Coast’s prime resort towns. If the beach isn’t for you, the state offers mountain views and generally mild winters. For psychologists, the state offers good pay and a fair amount of employment opportunities.
