All about Jekyll Island
Just south of Savannah, Georgia lies Jekyll Island, one of the coastal region’s 15 barrier islands, popular for its 10 miles of pristine beaches. Among those sandy stretches are the marsh-facing St. Andrew’s Beach, the wide and sweeping Glory Beach, and Driftwood Beach, known for its eerily beautiful scenery: a majestic beach punctuated by weather-beaten driftwood and tree trunks. The island is also a state park, with land development limited to just over a third in total, preserving the ecosystem and offering refuge for both nature and visitors alike. In addition to outdoor activities like croquet, tennis, fishing, and miles of trails for walking and biking, you’ll also find a number of environmental education and conservation programs to explore.
Within the town of Jekyll Island, the Historic District is home to acres of open land adorned with historic buildings, horseback riding trails, and golf courses.
What are the top things to do in Jekyll Island?
Horton Pond
Conservation efforts have recreated Horton Pond as a sanctuary for local wildlife and as a place for visitors to commune with nature. Walk the Tupelo Trail, which provides scenic views of the pond and its plants.
Eco-Education
At the Georgia Sea Turtle Center, you can learn about the island’s efforts to resuscitate the sea turtle population and take a guided beach walk during nesting season. You can also opt to take a guided kayaking tour of Jekyll Island’s tidal creeks with the 4-H Tidelands Nature Center.
Goodyear Cottage
Craft enthusiasts and art lovers will want to check out Goodyear Cottage, where the Jekyll Island Arts Association has its home. This nonprofit is the force behind the island’s creative life, putting on the annual Merry Artist Market, plus art exhibitions, classes, and workshops the rest of the year.
