Visitors of Myrtle Beach can start their day just a block from the warm sand, with a breakfast at Mammy’s Kitchen. This city landmark was built in 1953, and has been serving tourists and locals alike since with a hearty southern breakfast that includes biscuits and gravy, grits and corned beef hash. Customers can get a stack of pecan pancakes for $7.

 

If you’re looking for boardwalk-style Ferris wheels, waterslides and rollercoasters, Family Kingdom is the place to go. All-day wristbands cost $26.

 

Then, check out the best lunch spot in town at Mr. Fish. Sip on a glass of red or white and enjoy light seafood meals like their gourmet seafood gumbo here for $7.

Next, see the beach town from above as you ride as a passenger on a helicopter. Helicopter tours start at just $20.

 

With locations at both Barefoot Landing and Seaboard Commons, TBonz Gill and Grill is a great stop for microbrews, steaks and seafood. Try the crispy calamari with boom-boom sauce for $9.

 

Finally, end your day at Myrtle Beach’s best nightlife destination — The Boathouse. This outdoor concert venue and bar features an assortment of local bands that can be admired as patrons sip a tall glass of their favorite beer and sit on the harbor-side lawn.
