St. Simons Island is a unique environment not found anywhere else on the East Coast. A year-round community with the attractiveness of beach and golf resort life, graced by the Atlantic Ocean, bound by endless marshes and coastal rivers and sheltered by majestic oaks draped in Spanish moss. It is a place where nature takes second billing to none except, perhaps, when the fire-crackers fly over the Pier on the 4th of July.
Rich in history, there are tabby ruins scattered throughout the Island harking back to the days of early settlers and the later plantations that dominated the Island for generations. Owning Saint Simons real estate has never been better!
