Legends in Concert
Legends in Concert is one of the only places you'll get to see Elvis Presley, Rod Stewart and The Blues Brothers share the stage in a single evening. Well, perhaps you won't get to see the real legends, but you can enjoy the performances of some of the best music celebrity impersonators in the business. The nightly tribute shows at this venue each feature five distinct celebrity acts, a live backing band and a host of dancers and backup singers.

Crabby Mike's
Save your appetite for the huge buffet at Crabby Mike's, a Grand Strand favorite where the unlimited fresh crab legs are just one of the highlights. Though the wait for a table can be long at times, Crabby Mike's makes it a party with music and a full bar for the adults and face painting, hula hoop contests and other fun activities for the kids. You can also check out the locally-famous Crabmobile and perhaps meet Crabby Mike, the restaurant's namesake pirate, in the flesh.

If you're looking for something a little more relaxing, spend some time on the Surfside Pier.

Adventure Falls Golf
Just as the Grand Strand area is known for its ubiquitous golf courses, it's also known for having more than its share of miniature golf courses. Adventure Falls Golf in Surfside Beach is huge, with two full 18-hole courses. One is a little more challenging than the other, so you can choose your course based on whether or not you have small children along for the game. Adventure Falls Golf is also one of the more modestly priced miniature golf courses in the area.
