Situated as the centerpiece of the 1.2 mile-long Oceanfront Boardwalk and Promenade the Myrtle Beach SkyWheel is the first observation wheel of its kind in the United States, standing 200-feet above sea level. If you are looking for things to do in Myrtle Beach the SkyWheel should be at the top of your list. Take a flight overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk in one of our 42 climate controlled fully enclosed gondolas. The SkyWheel is surrounded by some tasty eats, great shopping and the pristine sands of the Atlantic. When you&＃039;re done having your breath taken away by the view from your flight, browse the LandShark SurfShack and then grab a bite to eat at the LandShark Bar & Grill.
