Endless Holiday

A beautiful coastline, picturesque marshes, and temperatures that require nothing more than a linen dress or a swimsuit are what make Pawleys Island a nature lover’s paradise. In addition to the spectacular landscape, there are no shortages of attractions for those who want a multifaceted getaway. Try some of these interesting and engaging activities and attractions the next time you visit the Island:

Brookgreen Gardens

Situated on 9,000 remarkable acres, Brookgreen Gardens is a treasure trove of sculptures, plants, and ponds. Located between Pawleys Island and Litchfield Beach, it also provides visitors with unparalleled opportunities to see birds and animals in their natural habitats.

Enviable Greens

If you’re like most vacationers, you know that South Carolina boasts some of the best golf courses in the United States, and Pawleys Island is home to some of the Palmetto State’s best. Visitors can try their hand on the gently rolling terrain at Caledonia Golf and Fish Club or visit Pawleys Plantation, where Jack Nicklaus-designed, marsh-nestled greens await. The oak-lined fairways at the Heritage Golf Club, or the classic challenges of the pristine Magnolia Golf and Tennis Club are stalwart choices as well.

Fishing Opportunities

For vacationers who want to catch their own dinner, Pawleys Island offers excellent fishing options. You can bring your own boat or avail yourself of the services of several charter fishing companies in the area, whether you prefer a day on the sea, river, or creek. Guided excursions are available as well.

The Hammock Shops

The famous Hammock Shops Village of Pawleys Island is the perfect place to go for those in search of handmade hammocks. The Village has more than twenty specialty hammock shops, offering something for everyone. Patrons will also find fine jewelry, clothing, wicker chairs, and even model yachts at one of the many boutiques.

Tasty Fare

Traditional Lowcountry dishes, such as shrimp and grits, Brunswick stew, and She-crab soup, can be found in Pawleys Island. Curious diners should consider visiting Chive Blossom, Bistro 217, Perrone’s, Frank’s Restaurant & Bar, or Nosh for expertly prepared southern cuisine that never disappoints. For a memorable meal during summer, however, be sure to make a reservation in advance.

A bit quieter than the Grand Strand, but with more to offer than a remote cabin vacation, Pawleys Island is the perfect blend of old southern charm and modern convenience!
