Home to the original rope hammock, Pawley's Island near Myrtle Beach continues to be a city frequented by tourists in need of a sturdy hammock.
Several shops in and around Myrtle Beach carry the handmade rope hammocks, an idea that originated in the late 1800's by South Carolinian Captain Joshua John Ward. Matching any decor, these comfortable loungers can be bought at any one of these outlets, including the many Hammock Shop Complexes in the area.
