Myrtle Beach Boardwalk

If you haven’t been to Myrtle Beach in a couple years, you may notice something different this vacation. Myrtle Beach is proud to present one of its newest attractions, the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk and Promenade. Open since summer 2010, the Boardwalk has already designated itself as being one of the most popular places on the Grand Strand for vacationers to visit. Visitors can walk the 1.2 mile-long boardwalk lined with six hundred palmetto trees and enjoy perfect views of the pristine shoreline and the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. The Boardwalk and Promenade stretch from the Second Avenue Pier all the way to the 14th Avenue Pier in Myrtle Beach and is divided up into three different sections.

The North Walkway section has a raised wooden deck with landscaping featuring dunes and various vegetation for guests to enjoy a natural and peaceful setting. Various pathways off of this section connect to several beach access points.

The South Promenade section is an oceanfront park promenade with natural landscaping and relaxing recreational activities for all to enjoy.

Unquestionably the most popular section of the boardwalk and promenade is the midsection which brings to mind a carnival-like atmosphere in sounds, sights, and activities. This section is adjacent to beachfront stores and shops and features cafes, arcades and much more.

 

Restaurants & Dining

Grab a bite to eat at the brand new Jimmy Buffet’s Landshark Bar and Grill. For another great Boardwalk restaurant, try the Pier House Restaurant and Pier View Bar at Second Avenue North and Ocean Boulevard. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, you will dine on delicious omelets, great sandwiches, and burgers, wonderful freshly caught seafood dishes. Various other dining options are there for visitors to try and no one should walk away hungry. Many shops line the Boardwalk, particularly in the midsection that ranges from beach clothing to nautical trinkets and souvenirs.
