Summer Destination Spotlight: Cumberland Island

Summer Destination Spotlight: Cumberland Island

Full of rich history and untouched wildlife, Cumberland Islands rank high on our list of places in Georgia to explore. The Cumberland Islands are Georgia's very own barrier reef islands that are now protected as a National Seashore by the National Parks Service. The island is only accessible by ferry via St. Mary’s, Georgia, and personal vehicles are not allowed. This destination is ideal for either a day trip or weekend trip depending on your desired level of intensity. We'll elaborate more, but let us explain why we love the Cumberland Islands so much.
