One of the crown jewels of Georgia's famed Golden Isles, Little St. Simons Island offers privacy, seven miles of pristine beaches and 10,000 acres of undeveloped wilderness for exploration and relaxation. Owned by the same family since 1908, Little St. Simons Island has retained the charm and unhurried pace of coastal living. Moss-draped live oaks and glistening marshes surround comfortable accommodations for just 30 overnight guests.

Island activities take full advantage of the natural surroundings and encourage outdoor recreation. Awaiting discovery and exploration are acres of moss-draped maritime forests and miles of creeks, estuaries and beaches untouched by man. The beauty of the landscape is punctuated by the opportunity to observe the area's wildlife in its natural habitat. Natural history tours of the Island, led by a trained naturalist, are a favorite among guests. Narratives of the Island's history and ecosystems are interspersed with sightings of American alligator, fallow deer, armadillos and an array of birds. Sightings of colorful painted buntings and piping plovers on their migratory journeys are just one reason Little St. Simons Island is recognized as one of the best birding locations on the eastern seaboard. Hiking, bicycling and horseback riding are also popular ways to explore the Island.

Water sports, including swimming, fly fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and motor boating invite guests to enjoy the Island's secluded beaches and waterways. Canoeing through the waterways, guests may be joined on their tranquil journey by bottlenose dolphin swimming alongside the boat. Saltwater fly fishing excursions to secluded inlets offer an opportunity to commune with nature as well as a chance to catch redfish, trout and flounder. Seven miles of pristine beaches are ideal for swimming, shelling and sunbathing.
