Sightseers, families and adventurers – head to Ocean Boulevard on Myrtle Beach to take a ride on one of the tallest observation wheels in North America. Offering sweeping picturesque views of the South Carolina coastline and the shimmering Atlantic Ocean, the SkyWheel is perfect for families, romantics, photographers and anyone else who would like a truly unforgettable Myrtle Beach experience.
Soaring an incredible 52 metres into the blue, this impressive landmark makes three rotations, each lasting about ten or twelve minutes. As you reach the summit, catch your breath as the magnificent views are laid out before you. Photographers of all abilities will capture some amazing photographs from this unique vantage point so make sure to bring your camera.
With over 42 air-conditioned gondolas that can carry up to six people, you never have long to wait for your turn, but if you’re feeling generous, or have someone special to impress, splash the cash on a VIP Gondola package. Recline in style on plush leather seats and gaze down through glass floors as you are treated to six unforgettable rotations. VIP guests also receive a souvenir tee-shirt.
If the tee-shirt has whetted your appetite for more merchandise, head to the nearby LandShark SurfShack and pick up some quirky SkyWheel memorabilia.
With plenty of fantastic eateries flanking the boardwalk, you’re never far from some top-quality cuisine. Located right next to the SkyWheel is the excellent LandShark Bar & Grill. Not only does this restaurant have gorgeous ocean views but their signature cocktails and LandShark lager are to die for.
A stunning landmark in the daytime, the wheel is even more beautiful at dusk when over a million LED lights shimmer and twinkle invitingly as part of a unique lightshow.
Attracting thousands of visitors every year, the SkyWheel is easily one of the most popular attractions along the Oceanfront Boardwalk and Promenade, so make sure it makes up part of your Myrtle Beach to-do list.
