By MyrtleBeach.com August 28, 2024 For nearly a half-century, Family Kingdom Amusem*nt Park has been showing visitors of all ages a great time in the heart of Myrtle Beach’s downtown district. Opened in 1966, Family Kingdom has grown into the largest theme park on the South Carolina coast. Featuring dozens of attractions, thrill rides, food, games and kids’ rides, Family Kingdom is your one-stop spot for good times on the Grand Strand. Ride the historic Swamp Fox roller, the Slingshot, the Galleon, the Log Flume and a wide range of thrill rides, while children will love the Frog Hopper, Balloon Fiesta and Kiddie Speedway. There’s something for all ages at Family Kingdom, like the 1923 Carousel that will take the older set for a stroll down Myrtle Beach’s memory lane. Best of all, those who want to ride can purchase an all-day arm band while those who prefer to watch the little ones in action can visit for free.
