According to the City of Atlantic Beach, Myrtle Beach Black Bike Week is recently reported to draw crowds in excess of 400,000 people to the area though it is hard to distinguish them from the crowd of spring breakers who have been in Myrtle Beach during the same time.
The Myrtle Beach Black Bike weekend is certainly one of the largest tourist weekends in the City of Myrtle Beach. With the help of $51 million in tax funded advertising paid to the Myrtle Beach Area Chamber of Commerce, the city has become the United States most preferred destination for black tourists.
