What to do and see in Garden City Beach, South Carolina (SC): The Best Outdoor Activities

December 10, 2021 Natalie Tallman

Garden City’s main attraction is the beach. Grab a boogie board and body surf on the waves, or build sand castles with the kids. For more exciting water fun, you can drive up the road to visit Myrtle Waves, a large water park with fun water slides and a lazy river. Adventurous adults can try parasailing above the ocean, and then relaxing with a fishing pole on the pier.There are so many things to do on the Grand Strand. Myrtle Beach has a new boardwalk and attractions including a giant Ferris wheel. You can visit Ripley's Believe It or Not museum and see the oddities, play in an arcade game, or get a hot dog from Peaches Corners. If you travel to Broadway at the Beach, you have a wide choice of restaurants including Margaretville, owned by Jimmy Buffett. There is also mini golf, a movie theater, and countless shops. Seafood is the order of the day in the Grand Strand and one of the finest seafood restaurants around is located right in Garden City, maybe even in walking distance of your vacation rental. Sara J's is located right on the marsh, and if the weather is good, you can enjoy your meal outside on the deck. There are numerous restaurants up and down the Strand offering a myriad of choices.The Carolina Opry, Legends in Concert, and the House of Blues all provide live entertainment. You can find clubs to go dancing or quiet little bars to have a drink.

Tupelo Bay Golf Center

Reviewed By smithlakefarms - Plattsmouth, United States

Staff (guessing most are retired golfers) were extremely pleasant, helpful and friendly. The course was well maintained and an interesting and fun par 3 and par 4 with plenty of water and sand hazards. Highly recommended if you need to work on your short game. Restrooms were clean and well kept. Plentiful wildlife and birds.
