Best Museums in Ocean Lakes Village

"Celebrity sightings are usually rare in Myrtle Beach, but this two-story Broadway at the Beach attraction is definitely the exception. Julia Roberts, Denzel Washington, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, Robert DeNiro, and all manner of other A-list celebrities, actors, and musicians are rendered in wax and waiting to take selfies with you and your family. Just make sure your phone is fully charged!"

"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."

"You will be amazed and shocked by what you find in Ripley’s Believe It Or Not located on the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk. Lots of hands on things to do and interesting things to look at. It will be an interesting day when you explore this odditorium."

It is home to regular temporary shows featuring sculptures, ceramics, and photography, and it is also packed with educational programs, art classes, and special events on its roster."

"The Myrtle Beach Pinball Museum is one of South Carolina’s greatest arcades. With a lovely location near to other attractions, eateries, accommodation spots, and shopping locations, it’s a fantastic way to get some fun into your visit. The Pinball Museum boasts a wide range of games, ranging from those dating back to the 1970s to modern, shinier offerings of today."

"Warbird Park is an educational and free attraction located in the Market Common district of Myrtle Beach at the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base. Since its privatization in 1993, the base has become a beautiful park, displaying aircraft that was once an active part of operations, and each craft on display is presented with details about its history and significance. Among aircraft on display, tourists will find an A-10 Warthog Thunderbolt that supported ground troops during Operation Desert Storm, an F-100 jet fighter that saw action between the mid-1950s and early 1970s, and one of the base's A-7 Corsair tactical fighter jets."

"Located in The Market Common, the Seacoast Artists Guild & Gallery gives local artists the opportunity to both practice their craft and to sell their works. Workshops, lecture series and special sales make this place a must-see for artsy types."
