Are you considering a winter getaway perfect for the whole family and easy on the wallet? Myrtle Beach is your destination! While it’s renowned for its summer attractions, the off-season offers an equally fantastic experience at a fraction of the cost. With fewer crowds and significantly lower prices, January is the perfect time to visit. We’re here to help you discover some of Myrtle Beach’s lesser-known family-friendly treasures while you enjoy a budget-friendly stay at the Myrtle Beach Resort.
Huntington Beach State Park
Huntington Beach State Park is a tranquil natural haven just a short drive from Myrtle Beach Resort. In January, you can enjoy peaceful walks along the pristine beach, spot various bird species, and visit the Atalaya Castle. The castle was the former winter home of Archer and Anna Hyatt Huntington and now serves as a museum. The park is great for picnics with the family and having nature adventures together.
Ripley’s Aquarium
If you experience a rainy and chilly day, head to Ripley’s Aquarium at Broadway at the Beach. This indoor attraction is both entertaining and educational for all ages. Marvel at the colorful marine life in the various exhibits, see the mermaids, and we can’t forget about the interactive touch tank. There are so many exhibits that it’s hard to share with you, but we promise that the aquarium is a favorite for locals and visitors.
Broadway at the Beach
While at Broadway at the Beach, explore this entertainment complex that offers a little something for everyone. Enjoy dining at one of the many family-friendly restaurants, or discover one of the unique shops you wouldn’t see anywhere else. We can’t forget to mention the many other attractions like WonderWorks and the Hollywood Wax Museum. Not only will the kids have a blast, but the adults will, too.
Myrtle Beach offers a different but equally delightful experience in January compared to the summer season. With a stay at Myrtle Beach Resort, you’ll have a comfortable base to explore these secret, family-friendly treasures. From natural beauty to indoor attractions, there is something for everyone to enjoy. It’s time to book your stay, pack your bags, and patiently wait for your memorable family adventure to Myrtle Beach this January!
