Would you like to do a little Island hopping from the comfort of your RV? Then check out the island adventures on the Georgia Coast, in the heart of the Peach State. Hospitable communities welcome you with fun, recreation and succulent seafood.

 

1. Brunswick

Starting Point

Known as the world’s shrimp capital, Brunswick boasts several restaurants that serve these freshly caught morsels. After savoring the flavors from the sea, explore the town’s deep history with a stroll down historical neighborhoods lined with colonial- and Victorian-era structures. Several festivals celebrate the city’s heritage, including the Brunswick Rockin’ Stewbilee (January), the Rhythm on the River concert series (year-round) and the Blessing of the Fleet (May), which honors the shrimp boats as they depart for another big catch.

 

2. Jekyll Island

Drive 13 miles • 22 minutes

With a warm climate and miles of white-sand beaches fringed by luxuriant woods and forest, Jekyll Island reigns as an idyllic summer playground for families looking to combine outdoor recreation with scenic beauty and a dose of history. There are plenty of campgrounds in Jekyll island allowing you to make the most of your time on this Georgian paradise. The smallest of Georgia’s barrier islands, Jekyll Island gained notoriety as a vacation destination in 1886, when the nation’s empire builders established winter estates off the mainland. Many of these Gilded Age palaces are available for touring today. Ten miles of shoreline and five distinct beaches provide a stretch of sand to suit every taste. Home to “nature’s jungle gym,” Driftwood Beach is a must-see.
