South Carolina's Hammock Coast

Discover South Carolina’s Hammock Coast

Paddle through calm creeks, reel in blue crabs, or simply relax where the rope hammock was born. Award-winning beaches—Pawleys Island, Litchfield, and Huntington Beach—make this a top coastal escape. Explore Brookgreen Gardens’ breathtaking sculptures and Huntington Beach State Park’s wildlife. From fresh seafood in Murrells Inlet to teeing off on world-class golf courses, the Hammock Coast delivers the best of South Carolina’s coast.
