Make the Most of Your Jekyll Island Stay

A retreat shaped by history and nature

Jekyll Island stands apart as a barrier island where America's Gilded Age legacy meets protected coastal wilderness. The 240-acre Historic District preserves the winter retreat with restored cottages now housing museums and the elegant Jekyll Island Club Resort. This is where the Federal Reserve was secretly conceived in 1910, and that sense of exclusivity—now democratized as a state park—still permeates the manicured grounds.

Beaches and maritime forests

Beyond the historic core, the island reveals 10 miles of uncrowded beaches and 22 miles of bike paths through maritime forests. Driftwood Beach creates an otherworldly landscape where sun-bleached tree skeletons line the shore, consistently ranked among America's most photogenic coastlines. The Georgia Sea Turtle Center offers conservation tours, while 63 holes across 4 golf courses make this Georgia's largest public golf resort.

Accessible sophistication

The island's Beach Village provides contemporary conveniences with walkable shopping and dining that ranges from Lowcountry cuisine at the Grand Dining Room to waterfront casual options. Fly into Brunswick Golden Isles Airport via Delta Connection, just 30 minutes away, and explore by rental car or electric cart rentals that suit the island's unhurried rhythm.
