News Title: First Look: New Aerial Views of Islewater at Grande Dunes
Be among the first to see the latest aerial views of Islewater at Grande Dunes, an exciting new Intracoastal Waterway community now taking shape within one of Myrtle Beach's most prestigious master-planned developments.

Grande Dunes is widely recognized as one of the premier residential destinations along the Grand Strand. Stretching from the Intracoastal Waterway to the Atlantic Ocean, the 2,200-acre master-planned community offers an exceptional blend of luxury homes, villas, condominiums, championship golf, a private marina, and resort-style amenities—all centrally located in the heart of Myrtle Beach.
Islewater at Grande Dunes will be located within Marina Village, one of the newest and final neighborhoods planned for the Grande Dunes community.  Marina Village is being developed along the Intracoastal Waterway adjacent to the Grande Dunes Marina, providing residents with a highly desirable waterfront setting and convenient access to boating, dining, shopping, and everything the Myrtle Beach area has to offer.
