Fun World

Work is being done at the site of Fun World Family Amusement Park in North Myrtle Beach to replace the park with a new miniature golf course, a restaurant and townhomes. Target date for completion is late spring , early summer on the 14.24 acres of land at 700 Seventh Ave. S.

The new park will have a dinosaur theme and will be called “Dinosaur Adventure Golf.” In addition, Damon’s Grill restaurant, which vacated Barefoot Landing, will move to the new theme park.

Grand Prix Family Thrill Park

A 48,000-square-foot Bi-Lo supermarket that will anchor Barefoot Commons - a new shopping center - will replace the Grand Prix.

In addition to the Bi-Lo, Barefoot Commons is expected to contain restaurants, small retail shops and other specialty stores. Opening is scheduled for August or September.
