What to do and see in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina (SC): The Best Sights & Landmarks

April 6, 2022 Weston Hennigan

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.

Myrtle Beach Colored School Museum

Reviewed By Mr_Alejo - Houston, United States

This place is a great visit to learn not only about the history of this particular school but they also incorporate other relevant information about segregation. Some of their educational exhibits were eye opening for my kids for them to see the tools available to students before their time (typewriters, encyclopedias, etc)

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.

Myrtle Beach Boardwalk & Promenade

Reviewed By Pmack52_---

The Boardwalk in myrtle beach is a long stretch of pavement that runs parallel with the ocean leading to the pavilion area attractions and restaurants.starts at 2nd Avenue pier which is great for fishing( I catch red drum).also scenic ocean views.The walkway is very clean and pleasant with beautiful flowers and bushes.You can stop at many points of the walk and enjoy the beach and ocean. It is a very relaxing walkway leading to lots of fun activities and restaurants with fabulous ocean views and a soft breeze and wonderful.aroma of the ocean.Many gift shops along the way..We like the Gay Dolphin for beautiful and interesting souvenirs. Would highly recommend the boardwalk while visiting Myrtle Beach.
