For six decades, Family Kingdom Amusement Park has been a beloved Myrtle Beach tradition, and 2026 marks a major milestone as the park celebrates its 60th anniversary. Since opening in 1966, Family Kingdom has entertained generations of families with classic rides, seaside thrills, and unforgettable vacation memories.
Located oceanfront in the heart of Myrtle Beach, Family Kingdom remains one of the few seaside amusement parks in the country. Visitors can enjoy more than 30 rides ranging from gentle family attractions to adrenaline-pumping favorites like the legendary Swamp Fox wooden roller coaster, which is also celebrating its 60th birthday this year.
The park continues to evolve while preserving the nostalgic charm that has made it a Myrtle Beach icon. New attractions and special anniversary celebrations throughout the season make 2026 the perfect year to visit. Whether you’re introducing your children to Family Kingdom for the first time or reliving memories from your own childhood vacations, there’s something special waiting around every corner.
Best of all, Family Kingdom is located just a short drive from Ocean Sands Beach Resort. After a day of roller coasters, games, and family fun, you can return to your oceanfront room and unwind with beautiful beach views.
