Things To Do
Hammock Shops Village
The Hammock Shops Village is a must-visit for a true Lowcountry experience. You can stroll under moss-draped live oaks to explore over 20 charming boutiques, including the home of the famous hand-woven rope hammocks. With great local dining and unique shopping, it’s the perfect place for a relaxed afternoon in the heart of Pawleys Island.
Broadway at the Beach
Broadway at the Beach is the ultimate entertainment hub in Myrtle Beach, offering something for everyone across 350 acres of fun. You can explore iconic attractions like Ripley’s Aquarium and WonderWorks, or enjoy a huge variety of waterfront dining and unique shops. Whether you’re looking for a casual afternoon of people-watching or a lively night out with live music at the dueling piano bar, it’s a central spot to experience the energy of the Grand Strand.
Brookgreen Gardens
This world-renowned sculpture garden and wildlife preserve is a true Lowcountry treasure. You can wander through miles of manicured paths lined with centuries-old live oaks and incredible American figurative sculptures. Whether you're visiting the Lowcountry Zoo to see native animals or simply soaking in the "fairytale" atmosphere of the botanical gardens, it's an unforgettable way to spend an afternoon.
Huntington Beach State Park
Located right across the street from Brookgreen, this park offers some of the most pristine coastline in South Carolina. You can explore the unique Moorish-style architecture of Atalaya Castle, walk the causeway to spot local alligators and birds, or simply enjoy three miles of uncrowded beach. It’s the perfect spot for a quiet nature walk or a morning of beachcombing.
Summertime Lane
If you’re looking for a quiet and beautiful spot to enjoy the coast, the beach access at North Litchfield is a local favorite. Known for its wide, pristine sands and a much more relaxed atmosphere, it’s the perfect place for a long walk or a peaceful morning of beachcombing. With its charming residential feel and rows of sea oats along the dunes, it offers a quintessential Lowcountry beach experience away from the bigger crowds.
