Sixty miles of oceanfront paralleled by an equal stretch of the Intracoastal Waterway, along with rivers and tidal creeks, make the Grand Strand the ideal place for watersports. Whether your passion is to float high above the ocean, dive to explore shipwrecks, or simply paddle through the tidal marsh, you’ll find businesses up and down the coast ready to help you see Myrtle Beach from a whole new perspective.
Myrtle Beach Watersports, with locations on both ends of the beach, offers jet skis, jet boats, pontoon boats, and parasailing. The north end location is where you’ll find the Sea Screamer, the world’s largest speedboat. This is a great ride for the whole family, with two cruises: one along the waterway and the other just offshore. Both are unforgettable! Enjoy the scenic South Waterway on the Jungle Princess’ Barracuda Jet Boat leaving from the Waccatee Zoo location. The Barracuda skims like a ski in the water with spins and maneuvers that feel like a combination of white-water rafting and NASCAR racing!
If underwater exploration is your thing, Coastal Scuba in North Myrtle Beach can take you to many interesting sites off the coast. There are Civil War and World War II wrecks, as well as natural and man-made reefs. Rental equipment and lessons are available.
On the ocean in Myrtle Beach and Surfside, Downwind Sails, Ocean Watersports and Shoreline Watersports are where you’ll find adventure for the whole family. All locations offer Jet Ski rentals, Parasailing, and Banana Boat rides. Downwind Sails also offers Sailboat lessons and Kayaking along the beautiful blue Atlantic. Providing safe fun since 1975, they’ll help you make vacation memories that will last a life time!
