It's not by chance that Myrtle Beach is amongst the most popular family vacation destinations in America. Ask a kid what he would like to experience on a vacation, and Myrtle Beach has it all. And, some. Adventure. Excitement. Thrills. And, naturally fun "from morning to sunset.

And yes, some of the attractions can be found elsewhere. Of course , Myrtle Beach isn't the sole beach off the coast "though the Grand Strand does offer 60 miles of sparkling white sand, and is perhaps unique across the United States. And, yes other destinations have their bistros with menus "but how many can claim over one thousand dining locations?
But , Myrtle Beach has truly fantastic and unique kids attractions not to be found anywhere else.
Here are just 3 of the many distinctive Myrtle Beach vacation attractions that draw youngsters like spun sugar candy.

MagiQuest "The Interactive role playing game that leaps to life. Imagine your youngsters marching into a fantasy land where they start on quests and adventures using magic wands to solve the mysteries of the game. A whole world of fascinating fantasy where using their wand they can interact with the most imaginative characters. Nymphs. The Ancient Magician. They even challenge an orc, or defeat a dragon. Surprising encounters with magicians, princesses, trixters, elves and potion makers. Dragons, unicorns warriors, and the noxious shadow clan take a child's imagination into an innovative new world where the experience is three dimensional. Indeed MagiQuest is an experience that will be long and fondly recalled.

NASCAR Speedpark "Where Youngsters of All Ages Put Pedal-To-The-Metal. Which kid does not want to get behind the wheel, and put foot to pedal. NASCAR Speedpark is where they can just do that. Not in replicas of your gooey mini-van, but in replicas of NASCAR race cars that zoom round the tracks, with engines roaring.
There are thrills a-plenty. Children race side-by-side on the track with its tight hair-pin turns and high-banked walls, in one or two seat NASCAR duplicates.
The Slidewayz challenges with its many twists and turns on a brightly polished track. Maintaining wheel control while making an attempt to stay clear of the way of slipping and sliding fellow racers is the key here.
There are tracks for beginner drivers, tracks for families like the long-distance Family 500, and even Indy-style go-karts, where drivers put pedal-to-the-metal on a twisting, turning oval course.
Just be warned though "when you get back home, and put away all that vacation gear, don't be surprised if your kid asks to borrow the auto keys "even if he is only 6 years in age! This fascination may last a few months, probably till the next time you visit Myrtle Beach!
The Myrtle Beach Water Park - Cool Fun and Thrills in the Sunshine Yes, there are water parks elsewhere. And, so that the idea isn't unique and special. But the rides are, explaining why it's included here.
Think of a marvelously sunny day that just screams time to leap into the water. But , not just any water where all you are able to do is splash around. But water that starts atop of the planet's tallest tubular slides. How tall? Glad that you asked. What about 10 stories tall. The Turbo Twisters are three enclosed dark tubes that speed you down those ten stories. How briskly? Oh, just 50 feet per second. Of course, all of the way down there are screams of excitement, exile ration, and simply a small bit of fear.
The RipTide Rockets add a twist to water-rides "just when children think it's water, water everywhere, they are going airborne for the final splashdown. Sort of like the first space modules that made landed in the ocean.
Then there's Snake Mountain, with its 3 serpentine rides. Each ride is designed for a distinctive audience. The Python is a slower family-focused ride. The Moccasin is for those who require the excitement without the fear. And, the children born for speed, who desire it all.
Then there's the Aruba Tooba, with its whisks and swirls and no two rides are ever the same. Another ride contains them in an enclosed, dark, foggy tunnel. And lots more. And, what water park would be acceptable without its own river, providing a long, relaxed ride where youngsters can debate important philosophical issues "like how it's possible to get pop to extend the holiday for another 2 weeks.

Myrtle Beach is a great vacation destination and especially so for the children. There's lots to do for adults too "hint, it is the Seaside Golf Capital of the Planet. So if you are holidaying with youngsters, and would like them to have their day in the sunshine "Myrtle Beach should be top of your destination list.
