South Carolina Attractions
With a new year comes new and exciting things to do and places to see in South Carolina. We have everything from theme parks, to museums, to new places to shop.
Come on and let the good times rolls! This spring,
Hard Rock Park, the world’s first of its kind, will be ready for you to discover where rock comes to play. This 140-acre Rock ‘n’ Roll theme park in Myrtle Beach will feature roller coasters and other rides, children’s play areas, retail stores, restaurants and a live music amphitheatre. Reserve your tickets or take a backstage tour of the park before it opens.
The
Old Slave Mart Museum in Charleston has reopened to rave reviews. The museum recounts the story of Charleston’s roll as an urban slave-trading center during the domestic slave trade. The Old Slave Mart Museum’s permanent exhibit speaks to the stories, the contributions and the legacies of those who shaped the outcome of the domestic slave trade. Various narratives are presented in different media (personal letters, oral histories, documents, audio, video and artifacts) to provide a sense of those who passed through the mart, where they lived and how you can find their various legacies today.
For our visitors who are compassionate about animals, you’ll fall in love with the sick and injured sea turtles at the
South Carolina Aquarium’s Sea Turtle Hospital. Get a behind-the-scenes look at the turtles being cared for by the aquarium’s team of professionals.
At the Benjamin Mays Historic Site you can tour Dr. Benjamin Mays’ childhood home. A former sharecropper’s son, Mays became president of Morehouse College and was a key mentor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The historic site will also include an interactive visitor’s center and a tour of Mays’ childhood home and schoolhouse.
No matter who you are, or what your interest, it's time to have a great time in South Carolina.
