The Myrtle Beach Boardwalk

When visiting Myrtle Beach, the one iconic areas of land is the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk.  While the actual boardwalk opened in 2010, many of the businesses that sit along the boardwalk have been there for over 30+ years.  This is a segment along the ocean in Myrtle Beach that is 1.2 miles long and runs from 1st Ave N to 14th Ave N.

The crowning jewel along the boardwalk is the Skywheel which standing 187 feet tall and lights up the sky during the night.  From inside one of the 42 climate controlled gondolas, you can see most of the city behind you as well as for miles out into the ocean and up and down the coast.

Some other fun things to do along the Boardwalk is a trip to the Fun Plaza where you can enjoy some of the old style arcade games that were popular back in the 70’s & 80’s.  If you are looking for a great place to play some old school games, this is definitely the spot in Myrtle Beach.  If live concerts is more your style, you can catch some great bands along the beach on many weekends during the summer.  There are also many great places for shopping and a bite to eat like the iconic Peaches Corner.

There definitely is plenty to do along the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk to keep you and your family entertained for days.  Make sure to check it all out on your next visit!
