Jekyll Island
Georgia
As a barrier island, Jekyll Island's 10 miles of unspoiled beaches are perfect for sunbathing or swimming, for leisurely walks or invigorating jogs. Perhaps best known for their natural bounty, Jekyll Island’s beaches offer shell collecting for guests, young and old. Many live creatures abound as well, including hermit crabs and sand dollars. Though it is tempting to collect these interesting creatures, you can help preserve the Island's shoreline environment by leaving them as you find them, and by limiting your "catch" of shells. You can learn all about the creatures you see on the beaches of Jekyll Island at Tideland's Nature Center's exhibit area.
The Georgia Sea Turtle Center on Jekyll Island rehabilitates injured, sick, cold-shocked, and stranded sea turtles; the public can visit the Center, see the patients, and even watch some surgeries. For more information about the Georgia Sea Turtle Center, visit www.georgiaseaturtlecenter.org. A sea turtle release is also a part of the Wild Amelia Nature Festival, held on Amelia Island each May; for more information about Wild Amelia, please visit www.wildamelia.com. The Amelia Island Sea Turtle Watch has worked for more than two decades to collect data and assist in the survival of the sea turtles which nest on the island; for more information, please visit www.ameliaislandseaturtlewatch.com.
