Observation Deck on the Marsh
Huntington State Beach Park at Murrells Inlet on the coast of South Carolina with its Atlantic beach and wetlands inhabited by sea turtles, alligators and rich birdlife. A far-reaching walkway into the marsh allows observation of the wildlife.

SkyWheel at the Beach
The SkyWheel started as a stand-alone iconic attraction in May 2011 at Myrtle Beach. The SkyWheel is not a carnival ride, but a modern, safe observation wheel towering almost 200 feet in the air. It has fully enclosed gondolas offering a safe and secure flight with glass windows and doors for optimal views and photography. The gondolas are heated and cooled allowing for year-round operation in any type of weather.
For me, the SkyWheel was a striking element while shooting sunsets at Myrtle Beach.

Leading to Another Pier
A walkway and path lead to Pier 14. Located on the north end of the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk, Pier 14 is a great spot for those looking to get a different view of the ocean after a walk down the Boardwalk.
