Winter is a great time to visit Myrtle Beach! With seasonal temperatures hovering around 60 degrees (on average), smaller crowds, and lots of things to do, it is easy to have a magical winter in Myrtle Beach! Here are 5 of our favorite ways to spend a winter day in the Grand Strand.

#### 1. Meet Your Favorite Animals

Visit [Ripley's Aquarium](https://www.ripleyaquariums.com/myrtlebeach/) for some indoor fun with marine animals or encounter  exotic animals at [Alligator Adventure](https://alligatoradventure.com/). 

#### 2. Shop Until You Drop 

Myrtle Beach is home to an assortment of awesome shopping centers. Check out [The Market Common](https://www.marketcommonmb.com/) for charming boutiques and upscale stores, [The Hammock Shops Village](https://www.hammockshopsvillage.com/) for one-of-a-kind finds, [Coastal Grand Mall](https://www.coastalgrand.com/) for your mall favorites, [Barefoot Landing](https://www.bflanding.com/) for the perfect blend of retail and entertainment, or [Broadway at the Beach](https://www.broadwayatthebeach.com/) for oceanside staples like surf retailers and fudge shops. 

#### 3. Visit a Kid-Friendly Museum

[WonderWorks](https://www.wonderworksonline.com/myrtle-beach/) is full of mind-bending fun. If you're traveling with younger kids, then you should check out [Edventure](https://www.edventure.org/myrtle-beach), which is a children's museum that encourages play. At the [Hollywood Wax Museum](https://www.hollywoodwaxentertainment.com/myrtle-beach-sc-attractions/tickets/), you can meet wax versions of your favorite celebrities! There's also [LW Paul Living History Farm](http://www.horrycountymuseum.org/farm/), where kids can participate in live historic demonstrations. 

#### 4. Catch a Show 

Have an evening of exciting entertainment! Catch a show at [Alabama Theatre](https://www.alabama-theatre.com/) or [The Carolina Opry](https://thecarolinaopry.com/). For spot-on tribute shows, check out [GTS Theatre](https://gtstheatre.com/). 

#### 5. Walk on the Beach

Beach walks are better with smaller crowds. Go for a stroll on scenic [Hunting Beach State Park](https://southcarolinaparks.com/huntington-beach) or serene [Cherry Grove Beach](https://www.visitcherrygrove.com/).
