Little River Blue Crab Festival

Blue Crabs at the Little River Blue Crab Festival The Little River Blue Crab Festival is an annual event that takes place along the historic waterfront in scenic Little River South Carolina.

Although the Blue Crab Festival has become recognized as one of the Myrtle Beach area's most popular festivals, the town of Little River is quite different than Myrtle Beach, the flashy tourist town about twenty miles to the south. Up here on the north end, we enjoy a slower pace, a more family oriented lifestyle, and most people know their neighbors and those who live down the street from them.

In 2009, the Blue Crab festival will celebrate its 28th year. The popular festival was started over a quarter of a century ago by Little River locals and businesses along the scenic waterfront, and as the largest event in Little River, has continued to grow in number of attendees and popularity with each passing year.

The original purpose of the festival was to support the waterfront businesses. As decades have passed, and the festival has gone from the control of the chamber to a private corporation, it is the hope of this webmaster, who is a local living within a few blocks of the festival's waterfront area, that the original goals will continue to be a driving force behind the highly popular annual festival.
