This area was one of the primary territories of Francis Marion (a.k.a. "The Swamp Fox") during the American Revolution. He earned a reputation for harassing the British troops and then disappearing into the swamp. Several attempts by the British to capture him failed.

The town also boasts some amazing live oak trees draped with Spanish moss. Near the marina is the Deerhead live oak, which is over 150 feet tall and 36 feet in circumference and estimated to be over 1,000 years old.

Georgetown's entire downtown is a National Historic District, where visitors can stroll along the live oak shaded streets and adjacent neighborhoods, admiring the city homes of former plantation owners. There are 63 downtown homes on the National Historic Register. Georgetown is also known for its haunted history and there are several ghost tours available. The town and its residents welcome transients with a wealth of services, including good restaurants and interesting shopping. Another "must see" is the Georgetown Lighthouse on North Island. The third weekend in October is a great time to be in Georgetown for the annual Georgetown Wooden Boat Show, which celebrates the town's maritime history and features wooden boat exhibits, demonstrations and races.
