You step off the boardwalk into the hum of downtown Myrtle Beach — gulls ride the ocean breeze while arcade lights and salt-scented air tug you toward the pier. The game begins with a beep from your phone: an anonymous checklist of objects, a challenge prompt, and a remote guide ready to nudge you with hints.
This scavenger hunt threads through a coastal resort town shaped by the Atlantic Coastal Plain and a century of tourism. Myrtle Beach grew as rail lines and summer crowds established a strip of piers, arcades, and seafood joints; today the downtown grid mixes modern attractions like the SkyWheel with small parks and public murals ripe for discovery.
Geology is subtle here — wide sandy beaches and low-lying dunes push the ocean toward boardwalk timber and concrete promenades. Culture shows up in casual seafood counters, year-round festivals, and a downtown that rewards curiosity: look for vintage storefront signs and public art tucked between hotels.
Practically, expect mostly flat, paved walking across roughly 1–3 miles depending on how much you linger. The game runs about two hours on the GooseChase app; organizers list 120 possible photo objects across 13 categories. Your remote guide texts during play and can activate the app for you.
Bring a fully charged smartphone and an external battery, wear comfortable walking shoes, and plan for sun exposure — sunscreen and water are musts in summer. The activity is stroller- and service-animal–friendly and accessible to most fitness levels, making it an easy, social way to explore downtown Myrtle Beach without a map.
