The Family Kingdom Water park also features eight kiddie rides and a rainforest water tree to cool the warm mid summer days. The Family Kingdom Lazy River meanders the Oceanfront so mom and dad can have a restful and scenic, lazy afternoon.

Family Kingdom thrill park features two go-kart tracks, bumper cars, and a historical carousel. The Pistolero Round-Up is a laser ride with an old West flare and offers high tech fun. The Family Kingdom miniature locomotive winds its way through the park and under one of America’s last woodie roller coasters, The Swamp Fox Roller Coaster. Make sure to catch the Swamp Fox when in Myrtle Beach. Creaks and squeals will get the heart pounding as this ride will give you drops, jolts, and jerks. Riding a woodie is a charming East Coast tradition that has been going on for almost 100 years.
