Top 10 Things To Do, Activities and Attractions in North Litchfield Beach

"One of the most coveted attractions of Myrtle Beach is the vibrant SkyWheel—a 187 foot tall Ferris wheel on North Ocean Boulevard, right next to the popular Landshark Bar and Grill. Having opened in 2011, the SkyWheel attracts people from all over to ride in one of the six-people gondolas. The ride lasts for 3 revolutions and gives you a wonderful view of the city and ocean."

"Located on Ocean Boulevard, the SkyWheel is over 187 feet tall and has 42 gondolas. Ride to the very top as you look over the Atlantic ocean glistening during the day or night. If you choose to ride it at night you will be able to see the lights displayed as well as ride the first observation wheel of its kind in the United States."

"Experience a day of wonder in Myrtle Beach State Park, an oasis of nature amid a sea of human development. Located on the south end of Myrtle Beach, the state park is a stark contrast to the high-rise hotels that are just a short walk away. Featuring old-growth maritime forests with hiking trails that lead to the high sand dunes of the beach, this 312-acre oceanfront park was developed by the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) in the 1930s."

"What’s more fun than getting out in nature and learning all about local wildlife and ecosystem in Myrtle Beach. We have two beautiful State Parks, Myrtle Beach State Park, and Huntington Beach State Park."

"Myrtle Beach State Park, established in 1936, spans roughly 312 acres. It has 278 campsites, one mile of undeveloped beachfront, seven picnic shelters, a pier, and many other facilities."

"Savannah’s Playground is the ultimate kiddie destination in Myrtle Beach.

"These magical gardens, 16 miles south of Myrtle Beach on Hwy 17S, are home to the largest collection of American sculpture in the country, set amid more than 9000 acres of rice-plantation-turned-subtropical-garden paradise. Seasonal blooms are listed on the website."

"After lunch, explore nearby Brookgreen Gardens. I was particularly excited about visiting the gardens because I love botanical gardens in general and I really wanted to see Spanish moss before leaving."

Made with fresh ingredients, Olympic Flame offers the most popular pancake options including chocolate chips and bananas, as well as more unique toppings like apple cinnamon or fresh peach glaze. The pancake house also offers an extensive biscuit menu unlike anything we’ve seen before."

"There are pancake houses stacked on top pancakes houses here. There’s a rumor going around that there are more pancake houses in Myrtle Beach per capita than anywhere in the country. It’s a quintessential societal element, sort of like bodegas in New York City."

"Wahoo’s Fish House is a two-story restaurant serving up all different styles of seafood. Specializing in sushi and the fresh Murrell’s Inlet catch of the day, Wahoo’s Fish House offers up four different menus (Sushi, Dining Room, Happy Hour Eats, and Drinks). In addition to the restaurant, they have an extra section called Wahoo’s Bar & Marina that hosts live entertainment and of course drinks."

"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."

"Warbird Park is a fascinating place in South Carolina that is a bit of a hidden gem. It is situated in the district known as Market Common on the grounds of what was once the Myrtle Beach Air Force Base. With no admission fee, it is one of the city’s free things to do – and it’s also among the things to see that will entice aviation enthusiasts and history buffs alike."

"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!"
