What makes us adrenaline junkies?
Skydiving, extreme anything, and hazardous lines of work. They’re all signs a person needs a little extra spark in their lives. Excitement, even from fear, can trigger the hormone adrenaline. That brings an incredible feeling. It stems from our fight or flight response, and although it’s a thrill, it isn’t for everyone.
Thrilling Things to do in Myrtle Beach
Take the Escape River Island Challenge
If you’re a fan of escape rooms and shows such as “Amazing Race” and “Survivor,” this is the adventure for you. It’s an escape unto itself on the Waccamaw River. This outfit also offers excursions that are less intense for mellower times.

They include the Grand Prix Pro Track, High Bank Oval, and Speed Racer.
We also recommend season pass packages. For one low price, you can race every time you visit the Grand Strand.
