Good Times at Sunbury Crab Company Marina (off the AICW on Medway, River, near Statute Mile 620)
More good words about Sunbury Crab Company! Don’t miss this unique facility, and not just because they are a SALTY SOUTHEAST CRUISERS’ NET SPONSOR!
We left Savannah today and are currently docked at Sunbury Crab Co Restaurant and Marina up the Medway River @ mile 620 on the AICW. Elaine has extended a discount rate of $1.25 plus elect for AGLCA members (regular $1.75) and the 4 of us boats can attest to the down home hospitality that Sunbury has to offer. It’s one of those unique experiences like Hoppies or Bobbies Fish Camp except with real nice floating docks. They have a restaurant and bar on sight…we’ve been to the bar and it is truly unique…more later on the the restaurant. If you’re an AGLCA member and heading down the coast or when you’re heading up in the spring you should plan on making this a must stop.

Our experience at Sunbury adds to the kudos this marina has already received! We arrived on a late November Monday (as it turned out the only cruisers that day), and the restaurant is closed Monday and Tuesday- No matter, we were welcomed into the marina AND invited to the restaurant, asked what we’d like and were then served a complete meal, at the time of our choosing! We picked fried shrimp and it was the VERY best, bar none, that we have ever had anywhere! It was fresh (caught that morning), sweet and just lightly battered and fried- the French fries were to die for as well!! This was our second stay at Sunbury ‘¦ the hospitality, service and food the first time were terrific, but all were exceeded this time! The Sunbury family treats cruisers as `most favored guests’ and the rural Georgia sea grass/marsh setting is exquisite- We’ll return and we recommend Sunbury Crab Company to all!!

After reading the above postings we called Bernard and secured reservations for last night, a very cold December Sunday. We were directed to their website for directions, which after careful reading took us right in’¦deep water most of the way, and we did not encounter any real skinny spots Note that it is almost 7 miles in, BUT WELL WORTH THE DETOUR. They are the third set of docks on the Sunbury Creek Canal and have a large flag on their fuel dock, which is up from the face dock. They are the nicest people, so hospitable and the food is GREAT. We had a special shrimp chowder and then a bucket (a big bucket-chock full) of Blue Crabs. It’s also a great place to stretch your legs, a short walk takes you to an old, and now well tended, graveyard. A really lovely family run marina and restaurant. We will definitely stop again on our way north next Spring. Thanks for the tip!
