St. Simons Island, Georgia
Here are three newsy postings about places to keep your vessel, plus things to see and do on St. Simons Island. This is one of our favorite places as well.
Don’t miss Christ’s Church and the adjoining cemetery and the Lighthouse. A very good and reasonably priced restaurant that the locals use is The Frederica House. Assume you will be staying at the Golden Isles Marina which is a very friendly place and used to have a courtesy car which you will need.

I do the US East coast 12-15 times per year and one of my favorite stops is at Golden Isle Marina in St. Simons. The dockmaster is Melissa and she is great. Fair fuel prices and good facilities. They will drive you to stores and restaurants and are very accommodating in all the services provided. The channel going in has been changed in the last year so make sure you are using a current chart. Very easy if you have the proper charts. Call ahead and either Melissa or one of her associates will give you very good instruction. Listen to what they say about which side to the dock since the current may be moving right along. Great floating face dock, no problem. Newspapers and Muffins every morning. (Yum). My favorite restaurant is Barbara Jeans on the island.
If you need a last stop in FL the work should all be done at Fernandina City Marina just inside at St. Mary’s. Have a great meal right on thedock at Brett’s.
Good Cruising,

There is a great fish store on St Simon where i replenish my shrimp and oyster supply. It is at the main intersection on the way to StSimon town.
Barbara Jeans is a small chain but is famous for their crab cakes andshe crab soup. I can’t wait for April.
We usually stop a rent a car from Enterprise in Brunswick nearby and explore the whole Sea Island area in the surroundings.
