The PERFECT South Carolina Beach Town: Pawleys Island

Рет қаралды 18,540

Күн бұрын

The southern tip of South Carolina's Grand Strand is technically at Winyah Bay. Several miles north of Winyah Bay is a place called Pawley’s Island. it’s a beautiful island that sits at the southern tip of all the crazy development centered around Myrtle Beach. Go southwest of here and you won’t see any development on the coast until you get to the Charleston area which is about 62 miles south west as the crow flies. Pawley’s Island is in Georgetown County in an area known as the Waccamaw Neck, which is a long peninsula between the Waccamaw River and the Grand Strand. It’s all apart of the Myrtle Beach metro area. You wouldn’t know it though when driving through as it’s a much different feel than the larger city to the north. Pawley’s island is about a 40 minute drive from Downtown Myrtle Beach, or about 24 miles.

Pawleys was the go-to place for me when I moved to Georgetown in 2017 to marry my husband. He was born and raised in, and served as a policeman in Georgetown. He brought me to the south end for my first view of the ocean and we came back regularly for sunsets and rises. His brother-in-law built (and in some cases, after hurricanes, re-built) many of the docks on the marsh side. The whole area is beautiful and full of warm, friendly people. The beach re-nourishment that began in late 2019/early 2020 was much needed but left the south end looking drastically different than my pictures of our visits. I have seen dolphins playing just offshore and been privileged to share the beach with a friendly Great Blue Heron there. I caused a few locals to question my sanity when I'd go ankle-deep into the water in 30 degree weather but being a Michigander, it didn't bother me. :) My husband died in 2020 and I've only been able to go back and visit once since; this video brings tears but also wonderful memories, thank you.

We had a house on Pawleys Island growing up. Our house was just a small cottage in the center of the island. When I was a kid us 17 didn’t have anything except the Hammock Shop, Marlowe’s grocery store and Lachcotte’s grocery store at the south causeway entrance if I remember correctly. There were a few small restaurants at Murrells Inlet. I remember Ebb n Nell’s breakfast. My grandfather passed away my senior year in high school and the family fought so much over the house we had to sell it outside the family. The pier was public with a big fish house and my dad would take me there and get me an orange soda when I was little. When the pier was sold to a developer it changed the tight knit feel of the area. Everyone knew each other there. I live on a beautiful beach now much further south. It’s much more upscale but Pawleys Island still has magical memories. I’ve been to every Island in the Carribean but Pawleys will always be the real beach. I have been back but would rather remember it as it was 50 years ago.
