    St. Simons Island has glorious beaches that can stretch out for hundreds of yards.  At low tide you can traverse the island and never leave the sand.  East Beach has accessible beaches all the time.  Head towards the Coast Guard Station if you need a beach fix during high tide.

  • Other places to visit on the island
    Fort Frederica, St. Simons Light House and Christ Church, built in 1736, 1807 and the 1700s, respectively, these island treasures provide an historical perspective of colonial and Civil War era Georgia. Bloody Marsh is also a “must see” for history buffs!
  • Just a short drive away
    Jekyll Island was once the home to the “cottages” of Rockefeller, Vanderbilt and Morgan. Many of these are still available for view in the historic district. It is a short drive and a beautiful place to visit.
