What is on the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk?

The Myrtle Beach Boardwalk & Promenade has three sections. The northern section is 8 feet wide with a raised wooden deck and runs from Pier 14 to Plyler Park. Plyler Park hosts "Hot Summer Nights," with live music twice a week during the summer, and weekly attractions that include a "Kids Carnival," bagpipes, and a Dixieland band.

The middle section of the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk & Promenade runs from Plyler Park to the former site of Myrtle Beach Pavilion. Wikipedia describes it as having "a carnival atmosphere accompanied by restaurants, bars and gift shops." The Southern Promenade runs from the former Pavilion to the 2nd Avenue Pier, which city officials describe as a "meandering oceanfront park" with benches and landscaping. The 2nd Avenue Pier hosts weekly fireworks.
