The SkyWheel ferris wheel ride on the Boardwalk at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, takes approximately 12 minutes and completes three full revolutions.
VIP ticket holders get to stay on the SkyWheel for twice as long and ride in a special four-person glass-bottomed gondola cabin fitted with leather seats.
Opened in 2011, the Myrtle Beach SkyWheel observation wheel carries passengers up to a height of 187 feet (or 57 meters) in 42 enclosed gondola cabins, offering views over the city, beach, and ocean below.
