There is no shortage of awesome activities to enjoy this Spring Break in Myrtle Beach! The real challenge will be making time to enjoy them all. We've narrowed our list down to our top five picks, and if you can’t choose, you can extend your stay at our Myrtle Beach Boardwalk resort.
Top Golf of Myrtle Beach has more than 70 climate-controlled hitting bays, over 200 HDTVs, a full-service restaurant and bar, and a rooftop terrace with a firepit. Guests can watch a live sporting event, enjoy a round of Angry Birds Golf, or take a private golf lesson all under one roof. Golf lessons are available for both children and adults.

The Myrtle Beach area is surrounded by large bodies of water. Beyond the Atlantic Ocean, there is the Inlet (or salt marsh), the Waccamaw River, the Intracoastal Waterway, and numerous smaller rivers and creeks. While a dip in the Atlantic Ocean during the Spring months will prove to be chilly, there’s no reason you still can’t enjoy numerous watersports and activities. Here are a few of our favorites:
Arcade games, classic American cuisine, giant TVs, and drink specials – all this and more are found at Dave Buster’s of Myrtle Beach. Dave & Buster’s has Happy Hour specials every weekday plus half-priced games every Wednesday. They also offer a 15% discount to military and first responders. Dave & Buster’s is located in Broadway at the Beach across from Bar Louie. All ages are welcome to play, but kids under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
Another awesome family-friendly game zone is Fun Warehouse, but Fun Warehouse is more than just an arcade. You can join a virtual reality game, speed around the roller rink, jump through inflatables, win prizes in the arcade, and shoot your way to victory at laser tag.

There are many nighttime hotspots along the Grand Strand, but here are some of our favorites:
By day, Señor Frog’s is a family-friendly restaurant featuring a delicious menu, but when the moon rises, Señor Frog’s is transformed into one of the top clubs in Myrtle Beach. Along with incredible cocktail creations, there is always live music and dancing. Señor Frog’s Myrtle Beach is located near The Avenue section of Broadway at the Beach.
Another transforming nightlife scene is along the Murrells Inlet MarshWalk. Seven delicious restaurants serve lunch and dinner during the day, and some even have breakfast, but in the evenings, each restaurant (or its adjoining bar) turns into a live music venue. Local musicians play along the MarshWalk nightly with each bar featuring its own unique drinks. View the live music and entertainment calendars for each restaurant and bar on the MarshWalk here.
Located at the popular Market Common shopping and dining complex, 810 Billiards & Bowling is a hotspot for dining, drinks, and gaming. As their name suggests, you’ll find billiards tables and bowling lanes for a fun evening out with family and friends. You’ll also find arcade games, skee ball, cornhole, and much more. The food menu includes dozens of shareables, brick oven pizzas, and burgers. Order a beer or a cocktail at the bar for a drink that you can sip while you play.
Crocodile Rocks is the area’s only dueling piano bar. Guests control the show by requesting songs which one of the two players will perform. Every night is a new line-up with new guests and requests, so you will never see the same show twice!
