There’s so much to do and explore in Myrtle Beach, from strolling its famous boardwalk to riding the Skywheel, and dining at one of the many excellent restaurants in the area. One of Myrtle Beach’s best can’t-miss attractions – especially for families – is Ripley’s Aquarium, an 85,000-square-foot aquarium located in the Broadway at the Beach entertainment complex. The aquarium has two levels and all kinds of exhibits and events, including hands-on aquatic encounters and even mermaids. For an extra memorable visit, book a penguin encounter, then explore the shark tank on a glass-bottomed boat!
