Free Museums in North Litchfield Beach

"We can’t promise you’ll see any celebrities wondering the beach while you’re here, but we can promise you can hang out with plenty of them at the Hollywood Wax Museum!. This exciting attraction is fairly new to the Grand Strand but has quickly become a Myrtle Beach favorite. The hand-sculpted wax figures at this museum are so realistic that guests have reported: “ it was like they were going to speak to you!"

"Every tourist town needs a wax museum, and Myrtle Beach is no exception with its Hollywood House of Wax. You'll have no trouble spotting it off Highway 17; just look for King Kong swinging off the Empire State Building. Inside the wax museum are eerily lifelike wax figures of Hollywood's most famous actors, including Clint Eastwood, Duane Johnson (aka The Rock), and others."

"Aside from the historical museums in the area, Myrtle Beach is also home to several specialty museums that serve more as entertainment attractions than educational spaces. These places are perfect for those more interested in taking selfies with wax figure replicas of famous people, seeing mind-bending displays of strange human achievements, discovering the practical wonders of science, or checking out classic cars. Fun for the whole family, a trip to one or more of these promises an experience that will be talked (and maybe) laughed about for the foreseeable future."

"So many people grew up watching and reading materials from the franchise that is Ripley’s Believe It or Not!. , so when you’re in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, it makes sense that one of the must-do attractions is one by the very same name. The Myrtle Beach branch of Ripley’s Believe It or Not!"

It is situated in the district known as Market Common on the grounds of what was once the Myrtle Beach Air Force Base.

"Like the name implies, dinner and drinks here are a live science experiment. This downtown Myrtle beach restaurant specializes in molecular gastronomy, with bizarrely-good plates like root beer, sesame-glazed, sous-vide lamb ribs over an artichoke quinoa risotto or scallops served over wakame, with sweet Thai butter and lemon “caviar.” Many of the drinks come smoking or served in lab equipment, like the frosty “flux capacitor” with St Germaine, Tito’s Vodka, lemon juice, house-made blackberry simple syrup, muddled mint leaves and a soda floater."

"If you’re looking for a unique dining experience check out The Chemist, located at 300 9th Avenue North.

Order an experiment (a Chemist appetizer) like ahi poke tuna or sweet potato tots served with a bacon maple dip."

"When was the last time you sat down to eat at a restaurant and a glass of liquid with smoke coming out of it was placed on your table?.

"It was our first time eating at the Gulfstream and it was wonderful experience. The service was wonderful, even in the midst if this pandemic loss of help."

"As customers sip their Guatemalan cold brew, they are also taking a glimpse five years into the Myrtle Beach culinary future, where (hopefully) eclecticism reigns over tradition, and people give a damn if the coffee is sourced from local roasters, and baristas take pride in their latte foam art. The place is always full of hipsters rummaging through the bin of vinyl records, buying merch to take back with them, and getting their fill of blueberry scones and sandwiches with bacon, egg and cheese on everything bagels."

"Hi-Fi Coffee Bar is a new addition to downtown Myrtle Beach!. This hip coffee shop boasts locally roasted coffee that comes from independent roasters along the Grand Strand and Carolina coast.

Start off your meal here with Dim Sum, Dumplings, Pot Stickers, Spring Rolls, or another light option like the Seafood Tom Yum Soup, or the Japanese Seaweed Salad."

"There used to be two locations, but this is the only one left. What’s great about E Noodles is they take their dishes a half-step above typical Asian fare (try the crispy-fried tofu), but they don’t take it up so far that it’s too pricey."
