WonderWorks Myrtle Beach began as a Top Secret research laboratory on a remote island in the Bermuda Triangle.  As legend has it, the world’s greatest scientists – led by Professor Wonder – were given the task of creating a man-made tornado and harnessing the POWER of it.  During this experiment, something went awry and the power of the tornado was unleashed throughout the laboratory.  This created a swirling vortex that was strong enough to rip the laboratory from its foundation.  It was carried thousands of miles away and landed upside-down on the top of a crab shack in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.  Remarkably, all of the experiments remained intact and functional.

When you enter the building, everything will be upside-down, so in order to participate in the fun, you must be inverted.  Step inside the inversion tunnel and be turned right side up to begin your journey.  Once you are properly aligned for your adventure, family fun awaits with more than 100 hands-on exhibits:

  • Inversion Tunnel - Defy gravity!
  • Hurricane Shack - Feel the effects of winds of a Category 1 storm reaching 84 miles per hour.
  • Anti-Gravity Chamber - Water is traveling from the floor to the ceiling, or is it?
  • Natural Disasters - Twenty-five feet of computers and monitors present dramatic footage of some of the world’s most famous natural disasters. These disasters are explained in basic scientific terms.
  • Xtreme 360 Bikes - Pedal on these tandem bikes as you try to generate enough power to complete a full loop over the top and back to its original position.
  • Fun with Light and Sound - Strike a pose and leave your shadow behind, play Virtual Air Hockey, Dance to the colors of light, stomp kick and use your feet to play on the Alien Stomper, and create a musical masterpiece with the floor piano.
  • Space Zone - Explore the life size replica of an Astronaut Space Suit and Mercury Capsule.
  • Bed of Nails - Feel the sensation of 3,500 SHARP nails rise up from under you while lying on this bed of nails.  You'll learn why you can be lifted up by 3,500 nails without feeling the pressure of them.
  • Wonder Park - Have you ever thought what it would be like to be on the mound and stare down a Major League Baseball player at the plate?  Now you’ve got your chance with WonderWorks™ Velocity Ball.  Select a player to pitch to from Chipper Jones, Derek Jeter, Ryan Howard, Sammie Sosa, or Barry Bonds.  Take your windup and throw a pitch.  Then hear Ball, Strike, Home Run as the speed of your ball is displayed on the screen.  “Batter Up!”
  • WonderSimulators - Explore the latest in virtual reality as you design the roller coaster you’ve always wanted to ride but couldn’t find at any fair or amusement parks, then ride it!  If you prefer not to be flipped upside –down, explore the ocean in a virtual submarine adventure.
  • Bubble Lab - Kids of all ages (1-101) love bubbles!  Put yourself inside a gigantic bubble that you created!
  • Mind Ball - A challenging bio feedback game for two based on EEG technology.  Players will wear a headband with electrodes and relax their minds in order to use their brain waves and move the ball across the table to the opposing side.
  • Far Out Illusion Gallery - Enter a new dimension of reality and explore the unknown.
  • How Cold Is It? - Feel the icy cold water as it was the night the Titanic sank.  How long can you keep your hand in the water once the timer begins?

Make WonderWorks a stop on your Things to Do list when visiting Myrtle Beach.
