Uncrowded beaches and lush vegetation are characteristic of Georgia's Jekyll Island. Drive the causeway to cross onto this stately jewel originally inhabited by Creek Indians and later discovered by Ponce de Leon. Through its rich history, Jekyll Island has grown to welcome tourists and guests, offering up Southern hospitality and local specialties. There are plenty of relaxing things to do on the island, while not basking oceanfront. The Georgia Sea Turtle Center and several notable golf courses grace the island, yet more than half of it is dedicated to a state park preserve.
