Pawleys Island Historic District Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

The Sandy Island school ferry, which has been ferrying children from this remote island to public nearby schools for years.
Taken July 2015. This structure is the ruins of an old African-American hotel and night club dating back to the 1940’s.  Unfortunately it was not preserved and has since been torn down for “development”. #PawleysIsland #GreenBook #Abandoned #SouthernHistory

Excellent, friendly staff. Free hot coffee most of the day but no tea, only available by asking desk clerks. Ample parking, pool should be heated as was too cold to use. Very small hot tub. Many food choices within walking distance and beach directly in front. Would absolutely stay again.
