Georgia's Barrier Islands
From Savannah to St. Mary's, the coast of coastal Georgia is protected by barrier islands, some of which are only accessible by boat. This lifestyle, unlike any other, is enhanced by Ancient Live Oaks draped with Spanish Moss, picturesque marshes, private beaches, pre-colonial history, and pure Southern Charm! Georgia boasts the least disturbed coast on the eastern seaboard. Due to its location in the heart of the South Atlantic Bight—a large indentation in the southeastern coastline stretching from Cape Hatteras in the north to Cape Canaveral in the south—and the continental shelf being far offshore, Georgia's coastline is well protected from major storms, waves, and currents. In fact, if you look at a map, you'll notice that the coastline from Brunswick to St. Mary's is the farthest west coast on the eastern shore!
