Widely celebrated on March 17 each year — and set to land on a Friday in 2023 — St. Patrick’s Day sees revelers worldwide honor the beloved patron saint of Ireland with parties, parades and more. Among a long list of other fun traditions practiced on the high-spirits holiday, celebrants far and wide can be found wearing green attire, eating traditional Irish dishes, sporting shamrocks and, for many, raising a toast or two.
St. Patrick’s Day spent in Pawleys Island promises to be a tranquil time, given the famous Hammock Coast state of mind. Gather with friends at a local establishment for conversation and laughs into the evening. The more rollicking brand of celebration is in Myrtle Beach — and it’s a short drive from peaceful Pawleys Island.
For those looking for a prime place to celebrate St. Patty’s, the Grand Strand offers plenty of options for getting your green on — and soaking in the area’s coastal beauty and ample attractions while you’re at it.
Consider these highlights from among the many ways to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day that can be found on the Myrtle Beach area events calendar:
