Planning a summer getaway to North Myrtle Beach? We know keeping the whole crew entertained can add up quickly. But don’t worry. At Myrtle Beach Seaside Resorts, we love helping our guests enjoy all the Grand Strand has to offer, especially when it’s free. Here are four favorite no-cost experiences you won’t want to miss this summer with the family below.

Every Thursday night all summer long, the Horseshoe on Main Street turns into a beachfront dance party with the Music on Main Concert Series. These live outdoor performances bring beach tunes, classic hits, and dancing vibes to Ocean Drive. And the best part? It’s free. Be sure to grab a lawn or beach chair, stop by Melt for some ice cream, and enjoy the evening with the family dancing the evening away. We do recommend arriving early to secure a parking spot and a good location near the stage.
Stretching out into the Atlantic Ocean, the Cherry Grove Pier is a local landmark and is a great place to snap panoramic photos of the coastline. There is a small fee for fishing, strolling the pier, and soaking in the views is free. One of our resorts, Prince Resort, is adjacent to the pier, so you’ll be even closer to enjoy if you stay there. Even if you’re not, it’s still worth a visit to check out the stunning pier with the family this summer.

For those who are looking to enjoy some fresh air but not on the beach, check out the North Myrtle Beach Park & Sports Complex. With so many outdoor activities at the complex, your family can enjoy a long walk around one of the lakes on the walking paths. They also have playgrounds, picnic areas, and, during the summer months, a splash pad. Bring the kids’ scooters or bikes and take advantage of the free place to ride safely with the family.
Duplin Winery is renowned for its sweet Southern wines, but did you know that you can do more than taste there? Stop by to enjoy live music, relax on our outdoor patio, and shop with ease, all for free. Their gift shop and patio concerts are open to the public, and many families love the laid-back atmosphere on summer afternoons. Plus, if you’d like to take home a few of the wines as a souvenir, there are plenty to choose from.
North Myrtle Beach is full of surprises, and we love helping our guests discover it all without breaking the bank. Whether you’re in the mood to listen to live music or enjoy a sunset stroll, there’s plenty to do in the area. Ready to plan your trip today?
