When you visit in the fall, why not choose an activity that you can do rain or shine, and in warm or cold temperatures? Join us at Pirates Voyage Dinner & Show for an action-packed evening at our indoor attraction. Nothing will stand in the way of you having an incredible time! Our show is full of high seas escapades and romance, featuring acrobatics, pyrotechnics, diving, live animal tricks, and more. Cheer on the Crimson and the Sapphire crews as they battle for the coveted treasure! While you watch, you’ll get to feast on a hearty pirate dinner that is four courses of mouth-watering dishes. It starts with our Voyager Creamy Vegetable Soup and is followed by a Buccaneer Biscuit, Half O’ Roasted Cackler (Chicken), Swashbucklin’ Sugar-Cured Ham, Cob O’ Buttery Corn, Matey’s Mac ‘n’ Cheese, and Apple O’ Me Eye Pie. Whether you’re visiting with your kids, a group of friends, or your significant other, everyone will love spending an evening of your fall vacation at Pirates Voyage!

Plus, the fall season is the last time to experience our regular show before the holiday season kicks off! We put on a memorable Christmas show that gets everyone in the Myrtle Beach area into the holiday spirit.

2. Visit the Beach

Just because the summer season has come to an end doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy time on the beach! From September through November, temperatures tend to stay within the 70s and 80s in Myrtle Beach, meaning it’s great weather to be outside. Many people still swim in the ocean and splash in the waves during the fall! Even if the water is too cold for your liking, you can go for walks along the beach, build sandcastles, collect seashells, and more. It’s also a great time to be on the beach because you’ll see fewer crowds than the hot summer months!

3. Enjoy Broadway at the Beach
