Family Kingdom Amusement Park, Seaside amusement park in Myrtle Beach, United States
Family Kingdom Amusement Park is a seaside amusement park in Myrtle Beach with dozens of rides spread across a 13-acre property. The park features thrill rides, family-friendly attractions, kiddie rides, and go-kart racing areas all within walking distance of each other.
The park was established in 1966 as Grand Strand Amusement Park before the Ammons family purchased it in 1992 and gave it its current name. This change brought new management and direction to the longtime Myrtle Beach entertainment destination.
The park was featured in Kenny Chesney's music video for 'Anything but Mine' in 2005, linking it to country music culture and the broader entertainment scene along the coast.
The grounds are flat and easy to navigate, with rides positioned close together for quick transitions between attractions. Guests can purchase individual ride tickets or all-day wristbands, with discounted rates often available during opening hours.
The wooden Swamp Fox roller coaster forms a figure-eight pattern with steep drops that deliver classic thrills. This ride stands out as one of the most talked-about attractions on the coast and draws return visitors.
