About Golden Isles
The Golden Isles, located on Georgia's Atlantic coast, comprise several islands and the mainland city of Brunswick, renowned for their natural beauty, rich history, and southern charm. The four barrier islands—St. Simons Island, Sea Island, Jekyll Island, and Little St. Simons Island—showcase diverse ecosystems ranging from marshlands to forested areas, and golden sandy beaches. St. Simons Island features historical touches with its iconic lighthouse and Fort Frederica National Monument, harking back to colonial times. Jekyll Island is home to the historic Jekyll Island Club Resort and offers a popular sea turtle conservation program. Little St. Simons Island stands as an undeveloped paradise popular among nature enthusiasts. Visitors to the Golden Isles can engage in a range of recreational activities such as beachcombing, golfing, fishing, kayaking, and wildlife observation alongside controlled development policies intended to preserve the ecological integrity of these coastal treasures.
