Adventure is Out There in Myrtle Beach

Did you know that there are so many different things that your family can do on your next vacation? The kids are out for the summer and why not go on an adventure in the Myrtle Beach area. Staying with us at Myrtle Beach Resort will keep you close to where the fun is at nearby. Let’s take a look at a few of the fun adventures that your family can try on your next vacation below.

Be a Ninja

One of the latest crazes that has hit the United States has to be American Ninja Warriors. In many cities you may find your own obstacle course you can have fun on, but you are in luck. Myrtle Beach has their very own Ninja gym where you and your family can become a ninja too. Choose from 60 minutes to 120 minutes. What a great way to spend the day with the family to be a new Ninja Family!

Let’s Go Tubing

Did you know that you can do something a little different while at the beach? Instead of going to the beach for a day, head over to River Island Adventure. Here you will be able to do a few different things such as tubing down the Waccamaw River as a family, enjoy Taco Tuesday on a float or escape the island. This can become a family tradition with doing this and the prices are very affordable. Be sure to pack plenty of sunscreen to lather up so you can float down the river and enjoy spending time with each other!

Spend Time on the Water

Another great adventure that you and your family can do is do a few tours on the water. Many don’t think of doing something fun like this, but head over to Express Watersports where your family can choose what adventure tour you’d like to try. From taking a 30-minute Jet Ski tour to flying high in the sky parasailing, you won’t hear “I’m bored” out of any of your kids. And be sure to keep a look out for dolphins as they love to stay close and give you a show. Bring sunscreen, hats and be sure to pack your bathing suit as you go on a water adventure together!

Did Someone Say “Four?”

If your family is up for a little challenge against each other, why not check out Top Golf of Myrtle Beach? A newer attraction to the Myrtle Beach area is where the fun will start, and you won’t want it to end. You’ll find this 3-story building with 70+ Bays, a rooftop terrace, fire pits, and a restaurant at Broadway at the Beach. Top Golf offers group lessons, private bays for up to six people, or walk-ins. Plan a day with the family to this fun attraction in Myrtle Beach.

There are plenty of other adventures that your family can do while on vacation, but these are the few you’d enjoy. If you haven’t booked your next vacation to stay with us at Myrtle Beach Resort, now is the time. We hope that you and your family will be able to enjoy your next adventure and make new memories!
