Mama Duck Makes a Splash in Myrtle Beach: Giant Rubber Duck Arrives May 8–11

This Mother's Day weekend, Myrtle Beach is set to welcome a larger-than-life guest: the World's Largest Rubber Duck, affectionately known as "Mama Duck." Standing at an impressive 60 feet tall—equivalent to a six-story building—Mama Duck will be on display from May 8 through May 11 at the Burroughs & Chapin Pavilion Place, located at 812 North Ocean Boulevard. City of Myrtle Beach

Mama Duck's visit is part of the YMCA of Coastal Carolina's Splash Safe Challenge, aiming to promote water safety awareness during National Water Safety Month. The event is a collaborative effort between the YMCA, the City of Myrtle Beach, and Visit Myrtle Beach, with support from sponsors like Black’s Tire & Auto Service and Tidelands Health.
