pawleys island, sc.
If Rip Current Website Design were a person, Payleys Island would be it’s heart. It is where our partners first started visiting when coming to South Carolina. It is a magical place. Sounds corny, right? Well, if you don’t agree, you’ve never been there. Period. So many memories, there really is no specific one to pinpoint. Everything from grabbing last minute goods from Walgreens on the North Causeway to grabbing bait and hooks at Pawleys Island Hardware Supply…even the most mundane of errands becomes a walk down memory lane.

Island history
The town is located 70 miles north of Charleston and 25 miles south of Myrtle Beach, is known as one of the oldest summer resorts on the East Coast.
The families of rice planters who owned plantations on the nearby rivers first settled the Island in the early 1700s. The planters knew that it was unhealthy for their families to remain on the rivers during the summer and that the seashore was much healthier. Even though they didn’t know about malaria in the 1700s, they knew enough to get away! They moved their families, horses, cows, bedding, provisions and furniture to Pawleys in May of each year, where they remained until the first frost in November!
