10 Budget-friendly Things to do in Myrtle Beach That You Shouldn't Miss
Myrtle Beach is all at once a spring break destination, golfing destination, retirement community, and family vacation spot. Take in a foot-stomping show at the Carolina Opry, or cheer on your favorite knight at Medieval Times. Mingle with the fishermen of Springmaid Pier, then stop for ice cream along the boardwalk. Shop and dine at one of the area’s many outdoor entertainment complexes, or simply explore the many beaches of the Grand Strand – all with a personality of their own.

They had bar food available but I just sampled the beer. I am a certified beer judge & home brewer. All beers were well made and the server was quite knowledgeable. THEY DID NOT OFFER FLIGHTS. This was disappointing as I would have liked to try more beers. They did have 6 oz pours but that was more beer than I wanted.

Tons to do here, mostly for younger children. Plenty of swings including those for special needs children. Clean facilities and even a working water fountain. The area is fenced in which is nice and there is a huge lake that my son enjoyed chasing geese at. The ground is rubber and padded for safer play. I was really impressed and wish I had a playground like this where I live. If your in Myrtle Beach and have little ones, I highly recommend going here.

A Hidden Gem! Our Del Webb Community had a group outing private event for about 30 people - what a blast! Tried every machine - agreed with other reviewers Wizard of Oz, Kiss, Monopoly were my favs. Thought we would get bored after 30 min but 2 hours flew by.

Broadway at the Beach, South Carolina's favorite Travel Destination and the largest entertainment venue of its kind in the state features unique specialty shops, exceptional dining, award-winning attractions, fabulous nightlife and relaxing accommodations, all surrounding the magnificent Lake Broadway.
Reviewed By U2055JJjamesb - Raleigh, United States
Broadway at the Beach is a very large shopping and entertainment complex with dozens of choices surrounding several small lakes where you can even feed the fish. Much of the complex is set up for families with kids so be sure to bring a stroller if needed as the whole circular route is about a 1.5 mile loop, but there are bridges and decks crossing the lakes at midpoint so if a shorter walk is desired that's no probkem.

What better way to spend a summer day than to go to the ball park with family or friends. The Chicago Cubs' farm team, The Pelicans, are a terrific group of players to watch for a perfect outing. Not sure there is a bad seat in the house but we always try to sit along the 1st base or 3rd base lines or even behind the plate for excellent viewing. You can be in the first couple of rows for just $13.00 and be near enough to hear the players chatting or to see them warming up .... you are up close and personal. Foul balls are plentiful so there are plenty of chances to catch one or just join in the fun. Ball park food is good and lots of varieties like Philly Cheesesteak, burgers, franks, and kielbasa; of course, there is plenty of beer and other cold drinks and at reasonable prices. You can even treat yourself to Dip-n-Dots.
