    Astronauts

    I visited WonderWorks Myrtle Beach and overall, it was just okay--definitely more of a one-and-done experience. It's a fun spot for kids, but as an adult, I wouldn't feel the need to go back. It can get pretty crowded, so I'd recommend going early on a weekday instead of the weekend if you can. A few of the exhibits weren't working during my visit, which was a little disappointing. While it's entertaining, I do think the price is a bit high--around $35 per person would feel more reasonable than $40. Overall, it's a decent way to spend some time, especially for families, but not something I'd go out of my way to do again.

    This peculiar, columned building looks like some force of nature plucked it up, turned it upside-down, and then dropped it back where it was found. The inverted structure, called WonderWorks, is actually a children's museum. It's located inside the sprawling mega attraction Broadway at the Beach. it takes the concept of a science museum to a new level, engaging kids of all ages in learning while having tons of fun. The interactive exhibits are organized by theme into WonderZones, which focuses on topics like natural disasters, physical challenges, lights and sound, space exploration, and art. A fun experience from the moment you spot the iconic "upside down" building on the boardwalk, with palm trees growing from the sidewalk above you...

    My girls had a blast here. Free parking and so much to do inside. My babygirl is short so a few of the rides she couldn't do. They enjoyed the bubble station, laser tag and playing the matching game. Everything was clean and the staff were all friendly. Although it was a ton of people inside the line moved fast and I felt safe the entire time.

    I really wasn't sure what to expect. I kind of assumed it was like a science museum which is exactly what I felt There are multiple floors that have all sorts of activities on them and I will say they are pretty hands on. We love The Titanic exhibit as well as the sports. The only thing about the sports is it takes a while because it's only one person at a time. We did the hurricane winds which didn't feel as bad as I thought. We didn't really do any of the rides because my kids aren't into those. They really loved The bubble lab and being able to go inside the bubbles. I loved all the interactive pieces and they really loved laser tag, especially the guy who worked there who was beyond friendly and very nice to both of my kids and my mom who didn't play. I would definitely be back

    This place is not expensive at all, in my opinion. It's a great value for your money, especially for kids activities. My siblings absolutely loved it. There are so many activities to choose from that you can easily spend over three hours there without getting bored. You'll lose track of time before you know it. You'll want to try all the activities, and they're all incredibly fun and interesting. This is an amazing place to entertain your kids and keep them off the TV. I'm already looking forward to going back.

    We were looking for something to do when we were in North Myrtle this seemed like a fun time. We signed up to do the Soar and Explore combo which was a decent deal 34.99 to do the ropes course and zip line. We spent a decent amount of time of the ropes course, the kids enjoyed this. Then the zip line was fun but really short, so be prepared to be a bit underwhelmed on the zip line. Overall it's a fun experience.

    This was an unexpected surprise while visiting Broadway at the Beach. You can't miss it with its upside down building. Inside it's 4 floors full of interactive science experiments, tests of knowledge, indoor rope course, laser tag, short educational movies....and many other things to keep your interest whether you are an adult or kid. They also have an outdoor zip line that crosses the lake but was closed during my weekday visit.

    SO SO FUN and worth the money! $30 a person to enter the exhibits which include laser tag, an indoor ropes course, and a bunch of rides and interactive games! If you pay a bit more, you can also do the outdoor ropes course and zip lining! A great place for both adults and kids, my partner and I definitely learned a lot! My favorite thing I did was either the indoor ropes course OR the astronaut training challenge! Never in my life did I think I would be able to do that, but I did here at Wonderworks! There are so many other things to do, I definitely recommend setting out 3-4 hours for this place. Note: wear closed toes shoes so you can access all the rides!

    This may have been a highlight of our trip! We came here on a rainy day and it was well worth every penny. The interactive exhibits had something for everyone, parents and children. We spent 4 hours here and it didn't even feel like so much time had passed, we will definitely be back to do the outdoor zip line on our next trip, if the weather permits

    WonderWorks is really cool. We took the family to visit and they had tons of interesting things to play with. I work my glow-in-the-dark Nikola Tesla t-shirt that my daughter bought for me. In some sections of WonderWorks, there are black lights and my t-shirt illuminated nicely. There was a picture of Nikola Tesla, so I had my daughter take a picture of me with that picture. We visited the 6-D movie theater, which was pretty sweet. We threw baseballs at a screen to digitally strike out batters, while radar measured how fast we threw. We tried to decipher codes, we played with sand, read stuff, and generally had a good time. We probably spend 1.5 hours here and it was well worth it on a busy day in Myrtle Beach.

    Cool experience. There were a lot of things not working or out of order. There were not enough employees to keep the disrespectful people from being disrespectful to others and the property. The associate at the movie theatre was not friendly at all. There were a lot of cool things that were neat and informative. Overall it was fun, but too expensive for what it is. Definitely in a touristy area. We went during dinner time and it wasn't too busy.

    The building on the out side

    So much fun I will go again hope fully some time soon they have so many things to do such as obstacle courses and many free experiences

The price point is not bad for all they offer in fun. Everything from a wave pool, surf tide pool, lazy river and water slides for all ages! They have plenty of places to lay out in the sun or catch some shade either in a Ramada or under an umbrella. Not to mention the lockers and gift shop to pick up anything you feel you need during your visits from bathing suits to towels to flip flops or water shoes. We rode the big enclosed water slides first and it was intense! The "toilet bowl" slide was fun and entertaining g if you wish to ride single or double tubes. Plenty of places to choose from for a icee, cold drink or food including alcohol for adults. Only knock is the bath and changing rooms. They were a bit dirty and do not recommend walking barefoot in there as the floor probably had a ton of bacteria and also noticed standing urine in the showers stalls.

When we went on Monday the flow rider ride was closed due to maintenance. Not all of the slides in each area were operating. The wave pool was okay but nothing crazy about it. The lazy river is lazy in design for sure there's no extra anything asking it. No waterfall, sprinklers or nothing so in the heat it is super hot and pure sun. Bathrooms were dirty. Please please please take water shoes or some crocs or something to walk around in on a sunny day bc you will burn your feet.

The setup is creative, the lights and reflections keep you guessing, and it's a good laugh trying to figure out which way is actually the right way. It was a little pricier than I expected at $20 per person, but when you think about it, that's $40 total for two people, and it includes a wristband that lets you go through as many times as you want. If you're spending a few hours (or the whole day) at Broadway, that unlimited access makes it absolutely worth it -- especially for families or anyone who likes a bit of lighthearted adventure. Overall, we had a great time. It's a fun, unique attraction that breaks up all the eating and shopping, and I'd love to come back and do it again when they have it decked out for the holidays -- I can only imagine how cool that must look with all the seasonal lights and décor.

Customer were required to were gloves to keep the mirrors free from fingerprints. The maze is colorful and well designed. Mirrors are very clear, almost impossible to detect without touching.

The kids were obsessed with the fact that it's the height of 15 great white sharks stacked end to end. (Shoutout to the trivia signs in the line for that little gem--both educational and slightly terrifying!) They were also thrilled we got to go around five full times, which gave them plenty of time to argue over who could see farther and point out imaginary sharks in the ocean below. Meanwhile, I got to enjoy the views--the beach, the boardwalk, and most importantly, three kids sitting still, contained, and not actively picking on each other. A miracle. I even got a good photo where everyone's smiling and no one's mid-slap or eye roll. Worth every penny for that alone. It's not the cheapest attraction in town, but between the ocean views, the smooth ride, and the rare moment of peace, I'd say it earns its price tag. TL;DR: Stunning views, smooth ride, and just enough shark trivia to keep the kids distracted from sibling rivalry. A must-do if you're okay with heights--or parenting solo while your spouse isn't.
