Our story began with a simple belief: to truly care about the wild, you have to experience it. Founded in 1983 by Doc Antle, Myrtle Beach Safari is a 50-acre bridge between humans and the world’s most iconic species, a place where lifelong passion for conservation becomes a breathtaking reality.
We’ve been shaping pop culture for decades. From Doc’s legendary VMA performance with Britney Spears to hosting global superstars like Beyoncé, Kevin Gates, and top NFL athletes, the world’s biggest icons come here for the same reason you do: to connect with the extraordinary.
Wildlife is in our DNA. From Doc’s founding vision to the world-famous connections shared by Kody Antle, every member of our family plays a vital role in this mission. Alongside Doc’s daughters and grandchildren, we live and breathe wildlife care every single day. This is a multi-generational journey of love and respect. When you visit the safari, you are invited to meet our family and experience that bond for yourself.
When you join us, you’re part of the pack. Your support fuels the Rare Species Fund, which has contributed over $1 million to protect wildlife in the exotic corners of the globe. You get an unforgettable experience; they get a protected future.
For over forty years, our family has shared our lives and our home with the animal kingdom. We invite you to step into our story by moving beyond the screen to meet our family and create your own once-in-a-lifetime moment.
