From seaside destinations to trekking your way through dense Georgia scenery, Odyssey Lake shares our favorite spots to escape to in and around the Brunswick area. Check out these three must-see outdoor destinations.

1. Island Adventures

As one of the Golden Isles of the Georgia barrier islands, Jekyll Island is a nature-lover’s paradise. This location features a blend of campgrounds, beaches, tree-tunneled pathways, luxury resorts, and even a water park! Drive just 30 minutes out to this secluded island for the perfect getaway, whether it’s just for a few hours or a weekend excursion. Be sure to check out Three Oaks Farm for their dream-like horseback riding tours where they take you on a journey along the beach and through the forest.

2. Ocean Outings

Explore the Golden Isles by way of water with Scallywag Sailing Tours. Let them guide you along an on-ocean escapade while you watch out for the local wildlife– like sea birds, turtles, and dolphins. Choose from any one of their private Dolphin Tours, Sightseeing Tours, or the Sunset Sail Tour.

3. Local Campgrounds

For the ultimate dream-like camping destination, Hickory Hill Campground is the place to be. Weeping trees, dense forest foliage, singing birds, and chirping crickets encompass this stunning campground site. Escape from the city and venture out into this otherworldly spot. Expect a 45-minute drive south, then a short ride on the St. Mary’s-Cumberland Ferry to get across the East River.
