Francis Marion Park
Where Georgetown’s waterfront comes alive.
750 Front St, Georgetown, SC 29440
Right in the heart of downtown, Francis Marion Park is the perfect place to relax, take in the waterfront and experience Georgetown’s vibrant community spirit. The park connects directly to the Harborwalk, offering beautiful views along the Sampit River and an easy way to explore Georgetown’s historic waterfront.
When Front Street comes alive with parades, festivals and live music, Francis Marion Park is often at the center of it all. It’s a favorite gathering place for events.
The park honors Francis Marion, the legendary Revolutionary War hero known as the “Swamp Fox.” Marion and his troops used their knowledge of the Lowcountry’s swamps and waterways to launch surprise attacks against British forces during the American Revolution. His daring tactics earned him national recognition and a place in American history. Visit the Franic Marion Interpretive Center at the Georgetown County Museum to learn more about the Swamp Fox.
Today, visitors can enjoy the same landscape that helped make Marion famous—only with a much more relaxing view.
Stroll the Harborwalk. Enjoy the river views. Experience Georgetown.
