Isle of Palms History

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty

When it was first occupied by Sewee Indians, Isle of Palms was orignially called "Hunting Island" and then renamed "Long Island" in 1899 by Dr. Joseph Lawrence. James Sotille, a Charleston native, built a pavilian and amusement park that attracted large crowds escaping the summer heat in 1912. After a decline in popularity during the Depression, the island when through a revival from the 1950s to 1970s and the world began to notice this quaint coastal community.
