Suggestions for a trip to South Coastal Georgia?

[Buck119]

Hello.

This week and next week family and I are going to spend few days in that area. Final destination will be Jekyll Island where we will spend the last three days, however we have four/five more days available.
What would you recommend? Cumberland Island? What about the city of Saint Mary’s? Is there any other destination you recommend visiting? What about fishing or boat tours?
Anything special or place that we should not miss while in Jekyll Island?
We have two teenagers , if it makes any difference.

Thanks.

If you want a little good ol’ South Ga fun, stop in at the Woodbine Opry.

But arrive early, it fills up fast.

I highly recommend a day trip to Cumberland if you can get ferry reservations this close to your trip.

I like St Simons Island personally but my family is from their so it's a little bais.

Savanah is great history for a day/night.

With teenagers just chilling at the beach on one of the islands is basic and works.

Coastal Tide Excursion/ Lady Jane boat ride was fun and a must do.

Cumberland will be HOT. It's beautiful but can be extremely hot and sticky. Remember it's a pack in, pack out place.

I'm in St Simons now. Been coming here for spring break for 15 years. Love it. Good food. Not as quiet as Jekyll but not bad at all.
