Experience the South in a new way
The seaboard of Georgia and South Carolina harbors a wealth of wildlife habitats and a fascinating cultural heritage. Here, the Sea Islands hug the mainland, offering undulating dunes, meadows, marshes, and forests that teem with birdlife and other creatures, as well as an intricate web of waterways that beg to be explored.

Kayak in salt marshes and coastal lagoons rich with wildlife including American alligators and dolphins.
Get acquainted with the fascinating Gullah-Geechee culture of the Sea Islands, a blend of West African and English languages and traditions developed by enslaved people in the 18th-century.
