Must-sees in Town
Atalaya Castle
Tucked away in Hungtington Beach State Park is the beautiful Atalaya Castle, which once served as a winter home of Archer Huntington and his wife Anna. You can take a guided tour or take an audio-led tour and meander around on your own. The castle has beautiful gardens to wander through and once you’re done exploring, you can head down to the ocean or search for wildlife along one of their hiking trails.
Penguin Exhibit at Ripley’s Aquarium
That’s right – penguins have made their way to the beach! Visit Ripley’s Aquarium and check out their new exhibit that includes a penguin playhouse, complete with clear tunnels to waddle through and get up close and personal with the little birds. Make sure to stop by the penguin nursery to see where they take care of the baby penguins.
Myrtle Beach Pelican Baseball Game
Hit a home run with the family when you take everyone to a Myrtle Beach Pelican baseball game. Check the schedule as they’re always featuring various promotions like Thirsty Thursday, bobblehead giveaways, and Christmas in July. And if you go to a game on a Friday, you’ll enjoy a post-game firework show.
