Tucked into the flat, sandy Coastal Plain of northeastern South Carolina, Hamer is a place whose character is shaped by pine woods, farmland and its position just south of the North Carolina border. The Little Pee Dee River runs through Dillon County as part of the wider Pee Dee watershed. Hamer is best known for South of the Border, the flamboyant roadside complex near Interstate 95, established in 1950 and identified by its towering Pedro figure. Its restaurants, souvenir shops and neon signage continue a classic American road-trip tradition rather than a conventional downtown experience.
