Myrtle Beach's Top 10 Entertainment Spots: A Nightlife Guide

Where to Go in Myrtle Beach After Dark

Myrtle Beach is known as a fun seaside escape by day, but its entertainment spots and festive vibe crank up well into the night here, too. Broadway at the Beach is lined with several bars, pubs, and dance clubs where party-seeking crowds wander in search of boozy refreshments and hot spots for live music or dancing.

For a more low-key night out, thirsty punters head to Murrells Inlet with its strip of waterfront bars. Away from the bar and club scene, places like Pirates Voyage dinner theater and the Carolina Opry are among the more family-friendly nightlife attractions. Read on for more ideas on Myrtle Beach nightlife.

If the bar scene’s not your thing, then go to a movie or book a show at the Legends in Concert theatre.

4. Frozen cocktails at Fat Tuesday

The Grand Strand’s stiffest and slushiest cocktails


Categoría: Parejas, Gastronomía, Vida nocturna


Fat Tuesday is an offshoot of the original New Orleans bar that claims to serve the strongest daiquiris on the Strand. Try deadly-sounding frozen daiquiri mixes like 44 Magnum, Rocket Fuel, and Cat 5 Hurricane at the self-service bar, then go for a shot to chase it all down. Or fuel your nighttime escapades with a specialty baked pizza or tasty chicken wings.

Every night the fun spills out to the outdoor patio, where you can sit and watch the wandering crowds on Broadway at the Beach. If you want to secure a seat, arrive early or just hang out by the bar.

5. Seafood and drinks at the waterfront Dead Dog Saloon

Where to unwind after a day of fishing

Categoría: Gastronomía, Vida nocturna, Fotos


Murrells Inlet has earned a reputation as “a drinking town with a fishing problem”, and at least part of the blame for this must lie with the Dead Dog Saloon. One of a handful of bar-restaurants along the MarshWalk, the Dead Dog is a friendly hangout spot that’s apparently haunted by the ghost of Dudley the Dog. Not to worry, no ghoulish dog-bites have ever been reported.

Seafood is a must here. You’ll also find a good selection of beer and cocktails to enjoy with the live music. Find a table out on the patio for a prime view of the fishing boats coming back to shore. To reach Murrells Inlet, drive about 13 miles south of downtown Myrtle Beach.
