Activities on Jekyll Island

Every day’s a new adventure.

Jekyll Island has a legacy of entertaining its guests. With ten miles of sun-drenched beaches (all of them different), four award-winning golf courses, and Georgia’s only rehabilitation center for endangered sea turtles, there’s something for every kind of explorer.

Take a tour through the maritime forest. Watch the dolphins play while on a guided kayak excursion. Take a bike ride through the Historic District.

From the early settlers to the millionaires to travelers from around the world, Jekyll Island has fascinated everyone who’s ever crossed its barrier shores. We invite you to join in the experience.

Following precautionary recommendations regarding COVID-19 (Coronavirus) from the CDC, many island businesses and restaurants may have reduced hours of operations and enhanced safety protocols. Please contact the business directly for details. Learn more at jekyllisland.com/covid-19.
