Family-Friendly Adventure Awaits at Soar and Explore Myrtle Beach

Reviewed by Ashley of ReserveDirect.comFor a family-friendly adventure, look no further than Soar and Explore, located at Broadway at the Beach in Myrtle Beach. This attraction features two outdoor adventures – a Ropes Challenge Course and a Zipline – that take family fun to new heights.

The Ropes Challenge Course is the only ropes course in Myrtle Beach. It features a pirate theme, over 3,000 ropes and 33 different challenges and obstacles, including a tremor bridge, tight rope walk, ladders, swinging stairs and it extends out over Lake Broadway. The course lets you test your strength and skills as you climb your way to 40 feet in the air. Plus, the higher you get the more difficult the course becomes. Families enjoy the competition the course offers as well as the accomplishment one feels at the end of the course. Kids were proudly displaying their “I Did the Ropes Challenge” sticker during my visit. Note – The Ropes Challenge Course is very safe as all participants are harnessed in and attached to a security rope.

The Zipline Adventure gives guests a spectacular ride over Lake Broadway. After being attached to a safety harness and climbing a set of stairs, I launched from a platform and soared over Lake Broadway at 50 feet in the air. The zipline is 500 feet both ways, so you get to experience a total of 1,000 feet of zipline. As I glided through the air, I thought “I want to do this again!”

Soar and Explore Myrtle Beach is the place to go to swing, soar and climb your way to family fun. WonderWorks is located right next door too, so you can make an afternoon of it!
