The 10 Best Budget-friendly Things to do in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina (SC)

February 4, 2022 Lashaunda Abraham

Golf, sunbathing and fishing entice resort-minded vacationers to North Myrtle Beach, which hugs the South Carolina coast at the northern end of its famous Grand Strand strip. In the home of "the shag," the infectious 1930s dance that still swings through the local clubs, a family-friendly vibe prevails. Explore a nature trail filled with migratory birds, go for thrills at one of the local amusement parks or take in live theater. The mild subtropical climate means that outdoor activities are an option year-round.

This was a great place for all ages! My husband and I went with three children (12,10 and 2) and my parents. We all had a blast. The kids loved watching them feed the alligators and seeing all the different animals. We will definitely be going back! And an added bonus they had VERY CLEAN restrooms! Great experience!
