About Anchor Excursions

The company runs a 49-passenger ferry for scheduled crossings between Jekyll Island and St. Simons Island and seasonal special-event sailings aboard the passenger vessel Emmeline.

Signature offerings include sunset BYOB cruises, a Golden Isles History and Ecology Tour, music-focused Jam and Reggae cruises, a weekly First Friday ferry between Brunswick and local events, a popular Thursday night Hibachi Sunset Cruise, Fourth of July fireworks sailings, and holiday transfers to Jekyll Island's Holly Jolly Lights.

Anchor Excursions partners with local musicians, chefs, and event organizers to stage themed evenings such as live reggae with RASTAR and hibachi-style dinners on Emmeline. The ferry’s 49-passenger capacity supports comfortable crossings and reduces parking and traffic hassles for attendees traveling between islands or downtown Brunswick.
