Myrtle Beach is an amazing place. It is a great place to escape independently or to engage in family fun. The locals are friendly and the southern hospitality is reflected here.

Staying in the central neighborhood gives people access to many of the city's top attractions (Sky Wheel, Boardwalk, and Ripley's Believe It or Not).

This area is best for families and is 30 minutes from downtown. Alligator Adventure and the Pavilion Park are top attractions if you are traveling with smaller children.

Restaurants:
Sun City Café
It is a Mexican restaurant with great salsa, guacamole, food, and margaritas. Locally owned and operated and it gives a friendly and cozy atmosphere.
Paula Deen's Family Kitchen
Paula Deen's brings more southern hospitality to Myrtle Beach. It is a cozy space and reminds me of a grand southern house. There are rocking chairs in the front of the restaurant. They serve the dishes family style, so be ready to share. The collard greens and pot roast are delicious.
Activities:
Legends
Celebrity look-a-likes perform hit songs, complete with backup dancers & dramatic stage lighting. I really enjoyed the show and the celebrity look-a-like artists.
Polynesian Fire Luau & Fire Show
It is a entertaining show. It appears man has always been amazed by fire, and the show maintains the amazement. The buffet was average.
Gyms:
Planet Fitness
A diverse, Judgement Free Zone where a lasting, active lifestyle can be built. It is a 3 level facility full of cardio and workout equipment. Individuals are focused on their workout, and they still have time to be kind in between reps!
Desserts:
Kirk's 1890 Ice Cream Parlor
It is a great space to dive into variety of flavors. They do give big scoops here and the ice cream is delicious. They also provide various types of waffle cones.
Kilwins Myrtle Beach
It's an old-fashioned confectionery chain selling chocolates, ice cream, handmade sweets & gift baskets. I recommend the peanut butter cups and the candy apples.
Drinks:
8th Ave Tiki Bar & Grill
A colorful, island-themed waterfront locale with a patio, frozen cocktails, burgers & pizza. The drinks are tasty, so the alcohol may sneak up on you!
McAdoo's Beach Bar
It's a small beach bar with a view. The prices are reasonable and there is a pool table.
Smokes:
Mint Hookah Lounge
This is a laid back spot. The people were easy to get along with in this space. You can bring your own food, and there is a large selection of hookah flavors.
Naar Hookah Café
Many hookah flavors, plus hot and cold drinks, in a relaxed space with a mix of comfy chairs & tables. There is also a pool table in this space.
