It’s been the best-kept secret since the 1700s, but now it’s official. Pawleys Island has been named the “Best Beach in South Carolina” by USA Today/10 Best, triumphing over 16 other contenders from the Palmetto State. This accolade is part of a broader effort to identify the best beaches across several states. Not only did Pawleys Island take the top spot, but two other gems of the Hammock Coast, Litchfield Beach and Huntington Beach State Park, also powered into the Top 5, securing the fourth and fifth positions respectively.
Pawleys Island boasts some of the most beautiful and serene beaches on the East Coast. The pristine sands and calm waves make it a perfect spot for families, couples, and solo travelers looking to unwind and soak up the sun. The beach’s natural beauty is complemented by its commitment to preserving the environment, ensuring it remains unspoiled for future generations.
Pawleys Island has been a haven for vacationers since the 1700s. Initially, it was a retreat for families seeking respite from the inland plantations’ humidity and mosquitoes. Today, it attracts visitors from around the globe, drawn by its laid-back beach vibes and historic charm. In 2022, Garden & Gun Magazine ranked Pawleys Island as the No. 2 Best Beach Town in the South, and in 2023, Condé Nast Traveler named it one of America’s Best Beach Towns.
When it comes to food, Pawleys Island does not disappoint. The local dining scene offers a variety of options, from fresh seafood caught daily to Southern comfort food that will make your taste buds dance.
