Overview

The oceanfront Myrtle Beach Boardwalk and Promenade, which runs a little over a mile long, is the “heart of Myrtle Beach.” Between the scenic piers, ferris wheel, shops, and dinning there is fun for the whole family.

 

The Boardwalk and Promenade have history dating back to the 1930’s when it was originally constructed. The city decided to do a $6.4 million dollar renovation in 2006. Construction was finished and the Boardwalk reopened to the public in 2010. Now spanning from Pier 14 in the north to Second Ave Pier in the south, this place has become one of the must sees when traveling to Myrtle Beach.
