Slow Down on Cumberland Island

Welcome to the slow side of mellow, framed by miles of softly sloping beaches, dunes, and maritime forest on Georgia's largest and southernmost barrier island, which is also a national seashore. Beachcombers love Cumberland for the abundant and varied shells, wildlife lovers adore the shorebirds and passing porpoises, and artists bask in the quietude and serenity (thanks to Park Service limitations on motorized noise). For the full experience, pitch your tent in a scenic campground. Click here to download a FREE travel-photo calendar - Liven up your desktop with stunning travel photos. Download is quick and easy!
