Pawleys Island, Administrative division in Pawleys Island, South Carolina.
The Town of Pawleys Island spans 0.99 square miles along the Atlantic coast barrier island between Charleston and Myrtle Beach in Georgetown County.
European settlement of Pawleys Island began in 1521, followed by its transformation into a beach resort in the early 1700s under George Pawley's ownership.
The Waccamaw and Winyah Native American tribes established the first communities in the region, developing settlements along the Waccamaw River over 10,000 years ago.
The Town Hall at 323 Myrtle Avenue manages municipal operations, contract administration, and public services from Monday through Friday between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM.
The population of Pawleys Island decreased from 138 residents in 2000 to 103 in 2010, maintaining its character as a small coastal community.
