Sailing:
Coastal Georgia offers some of the most beautiful, pristine unspoiled areas found anywhere. Many of the islands are protected against development and all beaches are available to the public to the high water mark. Offshore in the “Georgia bite,” as this 100-mile section of coast is often referred, North Atlantic Right Whales calve and nurse their young. Inshore estuaries provide protected anchorages and calm waters for smaller craft. Yacht charters and small craft are available for rent.
Fishing:
Coastal Georgia and it’s thousands of miles of coastal estuary provide for some of the best fishing found anywhere. Offshore species include bottom fishing for snapper, sheephead, and grouper. Gulfstream waters team with sailfish, marlin, mahi mahi, and tuna. Inshore fishing often yields redfish, trout and whiting; and the shrimp, well they are just everywhere. If you like to fish, you are in good company with a dozen or so professional tournaments located here yearly.
The Beaches:
There are no more secluded beaches in the United States than exist here. Wassaw, Ossabaw, St. Catherines, Blackbeard and Cumberland Islands team with wildlife and are devoid of any development. Sapelo and Cumberland have ferries but sometimes reservations are required. All beaches on all islands are available for public use. Getting to these beaches requires a boat, either yours or a hired charter. Miles of secluded beaches await you! Jekyll, St. Simons, Sea Island, and Tybee all have bridges and causeways and more commercial development. Some smaller island communities even feature their own airstrips. Unless you want a crowd, private beaches are abundant.
