Pritchard Street

The Pritchard Street boat ramp on Pawleys Creek offers a convenient public access point for kayakers, canoeists, and small boats in the Pawleys Island area. Managed by Georgetown County, this facility features one launching lane, making it best suited for smaller watercraft and ideal for paddlers. Parking is limited, so plan accordingly, especially during peak recreation times.

From this ramp, paddlers can explore Pawleys Creek and access the surrounding coastal waterways near Pawleys Island. The location provides a good entry point for those interested in exploring the tidal marshes and creeks characteristic of this Georgetown County coastal region. The nearby North Inlet-Winyah Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve offers excellent paddling opportunities through diverse habitats including tidal marshes and transitional wetlands. This is primarily a day-use facility best suited for recreational paddling rather than large vessel launching.
