There are well over a dozen prominent barrier islands off the coast of Georgia, and they come in all shapes, sizes and personalities.
There are well over a dozen prominent barrier islands off the coast of Georgia, and they come in all shapes, sizes and personalities. But unlike hors d'oeuvres, these islands are best taken in full doses. To try to see more than one in a day could lead to burnout, information overload and visual indigestion.
A two-day trip is a sufficient amount of time to visit two islands that are mirror opposites. Cumberland Island National Seashore looks about as it did in 1972, when the U.S. Congress designated it as a national seashore. St. Simons Island, which is just an hour’s drive north, has modernized over time but claims a rich colonial-American history.

No cars are allowed on Cumberland Island and visitors reach the destination by ferry (ferry reservations are strongly recommended at cumberlandislandferry.com). Once on the island, take a six-hour, guided van tour that reaches all corners of the island, or explore all or part of the 4.3-mile, self-guided Southend Loop trail.

A Cool Girl's Bedroom
WHEN DESIGNER JACY PAINTER KELLY, owner of Jacy Painter Kelly Interiors, took her family to New York City last summer, her 10-year-old daughter Lucy went crazy for the cool urban vibe of their downtown hotel room. It gave Lucy the itch to makeover her own bedroom in their Fort Mill home. She wanted more mature accents like silver wall sconces and velvet pillows, paired with punk rock elements like a graffiti-inspired bed frame and pink neon sign. Luckily her designer mom knew exactly how to tie it all together.
