Begin your day by watching the sunrise over the Atlantic Ocean. Myrtle Beach’s beautiful beaches offer a relaxing setting for your family to enjoy the breathtaking views. Bring a blanket and hot chocolate and watch the sky turn into a canvas of pinks and oranges. It’s a great way to start the day and a great moment to express gratitude and love for each other.

Explore Brookgreen Gardens

Spend the late morning at Brookgreen Gardens, a unique blend of art, nature, and history. The gardens are charming with the mild February weather, and the sculptures add an artistic touch to your Valentine’s Day stroll. The kids will enjoy the Lowcountry Zoo, and the entire family can learn about the area’s rich history through the garden’s exhibits.

Enjoy a Family Picnic on the Beach

Pack a picnic with your family’s favorite foods and return to the beach for a late lunch. A beach picnic allows you to enjoy Myrtle Beach’s natural beauty while spending quality time with your loved ones. Bring along a frisbee or a football for some playful family competition. After you have playful time on the beach and your bellies are full, head up to your vacation rental, where you can take an afternoon nap.

It includes many different things that you may have never known existed included weird and unusual facts, exhibits and stories.

This could take you and your family all day to go through and experience such a fun thing to do for a day together.

Miniature Golf Anyone?

Many people these days can remember vacationing at the beach and heading over to do a night or two of miniature golf with their family. So, why not start this as a tradition with your family on each vacation you take to Myrtle Beach? There are plenty of miniature golf places around Myrtle Beach whether it’s in North or South, you will find a mini-golf place. But pick a few places to try before trying to figure out if it’s the new “family” mini-golf course you want to visit every trip. And you may find that some of your family members will be very competitive too which can be fun for everyone. But just go out and enjoy the day or the evening with your loved ones.

Of course, there are plenty of chain restaurants for you to try, but why not try a few that you may not have thought about. Carolina Roadhouse is a wonderful restaurant that you can eat at that not only has amazing food, but whenever you order a salad, it will come with a glazed croissant that is to die for. Another local favorite would have to be Tupelo Honey which has excellent food choices for everyone in the family. And let’s not forget about the amazing seafood restaurants that you will find in the area. None of these restaurants will disappoint and we even have some dining options at Myrtle Beach Resort for you to enjoy.
