Legend has it that the town of Murrells Inlet (pop. 5,500) was named for Capt Murrell who was a pirate who used the inlet for a base as he pillaged the Atlantic coast. Fleets of deep-sea fishing boats anchor here and journey to the Gulf Stream for oysters, crabs, clams and shrimp. It is now a popular tourist spot.
