Driftwood Beach, Jekyll Island

#1 of 11 in Beaches in Georgia

Beach Nature / Park Must See

• ©

On the north end of Jekyll Island, Driftwood Beach resembles a graveyard for trees. Oak and pine roots protrude from these shores due to the gradual erosion of the north shore. In some cases, entire full-sized trees have washed ashore. The intricate designs of wave-worn driftwood make for an excellent photo-op. Driftwood Beach is just one of the many highlights you can arrange to see using our online itinerary creator, Jekyll Island Edition.

  Go check this out. Try to go out low tide. Very very cool. The north side is near the pier and has a bathroom but the south side has all the cool driftwood.  more »

  Loved It! Worth the drive to go there. Clean, very friendly folks. Perfect place for a 2 1/2 hr walk along the water.

  This is a must see location on Jekyll. It does get busy during the summer. So parking will be scarce. It is such a beautiful location. Beautiful location if you are wanting to have a wedding or just a picnic.
