South Carolina’s Hammock Coast is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the country, and now it has the recognition to prove it. In USA Today’s 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards, Pawleys Island was named the #1 Best Beach in South Carolina, while neighboring Litchfield Beach earned the #6 spot.
Located just minutes apart, these two incredible coastal destinations offer visitors the perfect combination of natural beauty, Lowcountry charm, and a slower pace of life that keeps guests returning year after year.
Discover the Peaceful Beauty of Litchfield Beach
As one of South Carolina’s top-ranked beaches, Litchfield Beach is loved for its wide shoreline, uncrowded atmosphere, and relaxing coastal setting. Here, your beach days are spent soaking up the sunshine, searching for seashells, swimming in the Atlantic, or simply enjoying the sound of the waves.
Unlike larger beach destinations, Litchfield offers a quieter experience, with always room to spread out and enjoy the simple pleasures of a day by the ocean.
Explore the Charm of Award-Winning Pawleys Island
Just a short drive away, Pawleys Island offers a glimpse of its historic charm and natural beauty, making it a favorite destination for generations. Explore the unique shops at The Hammock Shops Village, spend the afternoon kayaking or fishing in the nearby waterways, or enjoy fresh seafood and Southern cuisine at beloved local restaurants.
Together, Pawleys Island and Litchfield Beach create the perfect Lowcountry getaway with endless opportunities to relax and explore.
Your Home Base for the Ultimate Coastal Escape
When staying at Litchfield Beach & Golf Resort, you are perfectly positioned to experience the best of both award-winning destinations. Spend the morning at the beach, the afternoon floating down the lazy river, relaxing at the Beach Club, or playing a match of tennis, and the evening exploring the local dining and attractions nearby.
With spacious accommodations, walking and biking paths, pools, golf, and family-friendly amenities, the resort offers everything you need for a memorable coastal vacation.
