strange red and orange lights appear in sky in north myrtle beach Sands resort

we were on vacation in north myrtle beach on 74th ave the Sands resort. The first ones we saw looked like the lights on an helicopter top and bottom ones blinking they were red in color but no sound at all. There was a plane flying by but was low and did not look like what we were seeing. Then just vanished. The second one was orange in color very bright and was about 5 minutes after we saw the red lights.This one was in another direction it was only one dot lasting about 1 minute. The third one we saw was three orange lights stacked ontop of another then they separated as if they were in a stair step formation.these lasted about 2 minutes and then they were gone. These were all in about 10 minutes of each other. Then we didn't see anything for about 15 or 20 minutes and then saw three lights orange in color in a triangle formation these lasted about 1 minute and were gone. We thought these might be some kind of flares people were shooting up but no boats were in the area and no sound of any kind like airplanes or helicopters.Pretty cool to look at and kind of weird.
