Adventure is Out There in Myrtle

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

Adventure is Out There in Myrtle

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.

“Fall” in Love with Myrtle Beach Resort

“Fall” in Love with Myrtle Beach Resort

It’s hard to believe that Labor Day is right around the corner, and it only means that fall is coming. This fall, instead of heading to the mountains, why not head on to Myrtle Beach. We at Myrtle Beach Resort love this time of the year for many different reasons, and we’d love to share with them with you. Let’s look below at how you and your family can “fall” in love with our resort on your next vacation.

Beach Weather

“Fall” in Love with Myrtle Beach Resort

One of the best things about when you vacation with us here at Myrtle Beach Resort during the fall is the weather. Not only will you have pleasant weather, but you’ll also be able to enjoy the sand as well. The highs during the days will be around  80° and lows around 65° for September. October will bring a little cooler temperature, such as 75° as the high and 55° as the lows. We suggest that you pack a few different things for the days and nights. No matter what the temperature is here in Myrtle Beach, it’s most likely warmer than the mountains for sure.

Less Crowded

The fall months are a great time to visit Myrtle Beach as schools are back in session. This means that you’ll be able to enjoy more time together on the beach, at restaurants and when out shopping. You will also be able to travel around town a little easier as traffic won’t be a big reason, you’re late to dinner or a show. Another great reason is you’ll be able to find more availability at one of the many shows here in the Myrtle Beach area.

 Amenities

“Fall” in Love with Myrtle Beach Resort

Another great thing about coming to the beach during the fall months is the number of amenities that our resort has to offer. If it happens to be a little too chilly for the kids to enjoy the pool during the day, then have no fear as we have two indoor pools that you can take advantage of. Some of the other great amenities that we offer are hot tubs, tennis courts, three different health spas that have even steam rooms, saunas, and jacuzzi, and so much more. No matter what time of the year you visit Myrtle Beach Resort, there is something for everyone.

While there are many other reasons to fall in love with Myrtle Beach Resort, these are the few we wanted to share with you. If you haven’t booked your next fall vacation to stay with us, now is the time. We can’t wait to see you and
