UFO Sightings over the ocean 3 separate times in different locations Myrtle Beach SC

My boyfriend and I were on vacation 7/10/18 and sitting on the balcony overlooking Myrtle Beach SC. We were looking at a very bright reddish color star which we found out was Mars via the sky view app. All of the sudden, something appeared in the distance over the ocean close to where we were seeing Mars. It had red lights that seemed to be in certain places around the UFO Sighting. The red lights dimmed and white lights followed in a straight line around the UFO. The line of lights trailed off with the end of the string of lights disappearing before the front. Approximately 10-15 minutes later, the exact same thing happened again, this time to the left of the original UFO sighting. This time, a man sitting on the ground level patio alone turned around. We asked if he saw anything and he replied “what the heck was that thing?!” He also mentioned the red and white lights. Another 10-15 minutes later, we spotted the UFO again further down the beach. nuforc.org
