Ingram Planetarium, Sunset Beach

They offer a different show every hour on the hour. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. They have a hands on learning area for kids with several different activities. Great for all aspiring astronauts, scientists, and doctors. Restrooms were clean and staff helpful and friendly. A great place to escape when the sun is too intense at the beach. About an hour’s drive from Myrtle Beach.

I was not expecting such a great experience. How anyone would leave a bad review is beyond me. We arrived a little bit early and they opened the doors and allowed us in. The building was clean, handicap accessible and the staff was super friendly. We browsed the gift shop before the room with the hands on experiences was actually opened. The gift shop had very reasonable prices and a very nice varied selection! The hands on room was a lot of fun. There was not a million things to do, but you have to try the "hurricane" closet/room exhibit. Our show's guide was wonderful! I believe her name was Tammy. We saw Accidental Astronauts with our 10 year old grand daughter. She loved it. After the show there was a short talk about what stars would be in the local sky that very evening that we could look forward to watching. That was very unexpected. We visited the gift shop and purchased a couple of great souvenirs and are planning on going back again... probably going to make a weekend out of with a laser light show and doing some shopping. Sunset Beach is a great little town. Thank you so much to the Ingram Planetarium for helping us make our grand daughter's Birthday outing with her old Gram and Pop a cool experience!
