Easy and fun: Four things to do in Myrtle Beach

Looking for a quick weekend getaway? Breeze Airways launched nonstop flights from TPA to Myrtle Beach (MYR) in May 2024, connecting the two airports for the first time. With flights operating each Friday and Monday and only taking about two hours each way, a trip to Myrtle Beach could be the perfect escape you've been looking for. Here are four ideas for a trip to the Grand Strand.

Beach up and explore: Tucked along the northern end of South Carolina, Myrtle Beach offers about 60 miles of coastline. There's plenty of space to work on a tan or cool off with a swim in the Atlantic. Consider hopping on a Seakart for a quick zoom across the open water or relax aboard a tiki tour for views and brews. After soaking up the rays, head out for a stroll along the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk and Promenade, a 1.2-mile stretch filled with arcades, shops and places to eat. 

A golfer’s paradise: If a destination with more than 80 world-class golf courses is your speed, you’ve come to the right place. Often referred to as the “Golf Capital of the World,” Myrtle Beach serves up dozens of courses, including options designed by golf legends Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. Golfers looking for challenging courses with beautiful scenery need not look any further than the Dunes Golf and Beach Club or Caledonia Golf and Fish Club.

Family fun at Broadway at the Beach: Broadway at the Beach is a sprawling entertainment complex that promises fun for the whole family. With attractions like Ripley’s Aquarium, WonderWorks and frequent evening fireworks, there's no shortage of interesting stops to keep the whole family engaged. This area also features an array of dining options, from casual to upscale restaurants. For the Instagram-content lovers, head up for a sky-high view from the SkyWheel. This attraction offers 42 gondolas and takes visitors 200 feet into the air for breathtaking views. 

Wonder and wander at Brookgreen Gardens: Just a short drive from the attractions of Myrtle Beach, Brookgreen Gardens offers a peaceful escape into nature. Spanning more than 9,100 acres, this wildlife preserve offers beautiful gardens, a zoo and historical boat tours through rice plantations. For those interested in art, the Gardens boasts the largest collection of American figurative sculptures in the United States.
