Gambling Cruises In Myrtle Beach Sc

Posted on 4/10/2022by admin

Myrtle Beach casinos are considerably different than those you will find in places such as Las Vegas or Reno. The main reason for this is because the ones in Myrtle Beach are floating. The way to gamble in South Carolina is on Myrtle Beach casino boats. In fact, the only place where you can legally gamble on casino boats is on the Atlantic outside of Myrtle Beach. For groups of friends traveling to Myrtle Beach and looking for a diversion or complement to the clubs and nightlife along the Grand Strand, a night out on a Myrtle Beach gambling cruise can be an ideal option. There are so many things to do in Myrtle Beach with its over 250 golf courses, some 60 miles of pristine, white beaches, and countless restaurants, clubs, bars, and shops, that you may not even have time to enjoy the Myrtle Beach casino boats. If you enjoy gambling and want to do so onboard a boat where you can enjoy free well drinks and fine dining food, however, you must make a point to check this experience out.

The Big M Casino is one of the main casino boats that has been taking people out on the water for gambling for years. San Cruz is another such provider. These are the two largest even though there are several other smaller companies up and down the beach. There are many miles of beaches in this area, and with the massive influx of tourists each and every year, there is strong demand for entertainment of all kinds. This demand includes Myrtle Beach casinos, in every part of the city and the surrounding areas. Places that they depart from include Little River, North Myrtle, and central Myrtle Beach.

Most Myrtle Beach casinos set sail twice daily for five-hour trips. You will sail along the Little River (a gorgeous trip) before arriving at your anchored position where the party begins. Two different departure times are convenient. This way, you can choose to spend the day on the beach or shopping and then enjoy a night of gambling and partying after the sun has set. For those who are interested in getting back into town to see a show or enjoy one of the many fine restaurants in Myrtle Beach, you have the option of setting sail during the day. There always seems to be a Myrtle Beach gambling cruse leaving at a convenient time.

The SunCruz Aquasino is a 220 foot long, 600 passenger, 5 hour gambling cruise ship based in Little River, South Carolina. The SunCruz Aquasino offered 'Cruises to Nowhere,' legally transporting passengers into international waters beyond federal and state gambling laws. SunCruz Aquasino offers classic table games such as blackjack and craps, as well as a live poker room and slot machines.

History[edit]

SunCruz was founded by multimillionaire Konstantinos 'Gus' Boulis (who also founded the Miami Subs sandwich shop franchise). Boulis purchased eleven luxury yachts which he remodeled into casinos. These would conduct 'Cruises to Nowhere', consisting of a three-mile cruise from the Florida coast into what was then considered international waters.^[1] While in international waters, passengers could gamble on poker, blackjack and slot machines. Boulis named the fleet the SunCruz Casino line. By the time of its sale in 2000, SunCruz was earning tens of millions of dollars of profits annually, and had over 2,000 employees.

In September 2007, SunCruz discontinued operations at Palm Beach,^[2] and service has subsequently been discontinued at Daytona and Treasure Island as well. On December 16, 2009, SunCruz Casinos was reported to be closing amid allegations that it owed $300,000 to the Canaveral Port Authority.^[3] Less than two weeks later, on December 28, parent company Ocean Casino Cruises filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy.^[4] At the time of the filing, there were approximately 300 full and part-time employees.^[5] In May 2010, SunCruz returned to Little River, South Carolina under a new name, SantaCruz Casino, and under new ownership by Casino Partners of South Carolina, LLC.^[6]

Lawsuit by Horry County[edit]

In 2011, Horry County sued the operator of SunCruz Aquasino for breach of contract, alleging that SunCruz had failed to make payments to Horry County for passenger fees received during the months of August and September 2011. Horry County was supposed to receive a fee of $7 per passenger instead, of collecting taxes based on the boat's revenue. The suit asked for $165,000 in back payments plus legal costs.^[7]^[8]^[9] Aquasino asserted they had stopped making payments due to the county not enforcing a ban on illegal gambling, which was also part of the agreement. The company's position was that it had protested the boarding fees from the beginning of their relationship with the county, stating they were onerous. Even so, they had continued to pay those fees in good faith. However, when the county did not seem to be doing enough regarding the illegal gambling, they suspended payments, entering into negotiations with the county to reach a compromise. It was during these negotiations when the county filed its lawsuit.^[10]

On July 23, 2012, Horry County Circuit Judge Benjamin Culbertson ordered SunCruz Casino to start paying the passenger boarding fees as stipulated in the agreement, but did not issue a ruling on any alleged past due amounts. On July 29, the county received a check for $20,202.^[11]

Cruz/Gambling Features and Options[edit]

SunCruz Aquasino offers players Vegas-style slots ranging from $0.02 to $25.00, including ticket-in and ticket-out machines. Blackjack, Poker, Texas Hold ’Em, Rummy, Roulette, Craps, and sports-book wagering are also offered.
