Myrtle Beach, South Carolina: Five Family Activities to Try While on Vacation at the Beach



There are plenty of adult-oriented activities to be found in the area, but here are five suggestions for families to consider while taking a trip to Myrtle Beach. These are suitable for children of all ages, as well as senior adults who prefer a quieter trip.
Helicopter Adventures: Taking a ride in a helicopter is on the bucket list of many people. They've seen helicopters on numerous television programs and movies, as well as the traffic reporter on the local television station. Helicopter Adventures gives visitors a chance to fulfill that wish and do it in an affordable manner.
The budget ride of $20 with Helicopter Adventures is very short and may not meet the need for many. A more complete ride is available for less than $40 and takes visitors to the beach and back, giving them a bird's-eye view of the Grand Strand. Helicopter Adventures features a fleet of modern choppers and they are flown by a crew of highly trained and certified pilots.
Miniature golf: Everyone loves mini golf. You don't have to be Tiger Woods to be able to compete on the fake green carpet. It doesn't require physical dexterity or years of lessons. And it's a fun sport that children can compete against their parents - and many times win.
Myrtle Beach has almost 100 mini-golf courses in the area. Some are large and grandiose, with elaborate themes. Because of its location, there are many courses that have a nautical theme or feature pirates or cartoonish characters. Others course are older and have a simple theme. Expect to pay as much as $10, but you can find discount coupons at many hotels and in local publications.
Myrtle Waves: Kids will enjoy the largest water park in the state, which features more than 30 rides that twist and turn. The attraction has more than 30 million gallons of water, including a 20,000 square foot wave pool. Small children will especially enjoy the Bubble Bay leisure pool.
Minor league baseball: The Myrtle Beach Pelicans are the Class A affiliate for the Texas Rangers organization. The Pelicans play in the Southern League and play their games at TicketReturn.com Field. Tickets to minor league games are far more affordable than those of their big-league counterpart and most games have a promotional tie-in or giveaway. Kids will love to get autographs of future potential big-league players.
Soccer games: The Myrtle Beach Mutiny is a professional soccer team that plays its games at Doug Shaw Memorial Stadium. Tickets to the games are inexpensive and the team is very fan friendly. It could be a fun opportunity for the soccer fan in the family.
