Family Fun

If you've got kiddos, Myrtle Beach has your number. While water sports and sand castle building could keep you busy all vacation long, you won't want to miss out on the city's wealth of family-friendly attractions. Check out the Children's Museum of South Carolina , the Family Kingdom Oceanfront Water Park , the Myrtle Beach Waves Water Park , the Ripley's Aquarium , the NASCAR Speedpark , Magiquest , and Wonderworks ... to name a few!

Golf, Golf, and More Golf

Not only is Myrtle Beach home to loads of golf courses, but they're some of the highest quality around. Favorite courses include the Prestwick Country Club , Waterway Hills Golf Club , Legends Golf Club , Barefoot Golf Resort , and the Dunes . For the little ones, there's plenty of mini golf options, too - from Cancun Lagoon Miniature Golf to Captain Hook's Adventure Golf .

Nightlife

In Myrtle Beach, the fun doesn't die down when the sun goes down. Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville , the House of Blues of Myrtle Beach , the Dead Dog Saloon , and a host of other great bar and dining options (including the family-oriented variety) keep things busy after a long day at the beach. 

Festivals

Myrtle Beach has been known to throw some great annual festivals. The popular Sun Sun Festival and the Canadian-American Days Festival kick off every summer, and offer two fantastic ways to begin a summer of endless activities and play. The Grand Strand Fishing Rodeo also signifies the start of summer season, as well as the Beach Boogie & BBQ Festival where you can taste some great food and enjoy Myrtle Beach in a less athletic and more “laid back” atmosphere. The Fishing Rodeo runs from April to October and slowly allows the transition into the Christmas season when the Christmas Towne Holiday festival ramps up into full swing in the fall. Myrtle Beach is a well-rounded vacation destination with activities for everyone.
