Jekyll Island, Protected barrier island in Glynn County, Georgia, United States.
Jekyll Island spans 5700 acres with 8 miles of beaches and 20 miles of hiking trails across maritime forests and salt marshes.
The Jekyll Island Club served as an exclusive winter retreat for wealthy industrialists like William Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan during the late 1800s.
The Georgia Sea Turtle Center functions as both a rehabilitation facility and educational institution dedicated to sea turtle conservation and research.
Visitors can explore the island through 24 miles of bike paths, tennis courts, golf courses, and guided trolley tours of the historic district.
The Horton House ruins from 1743 display tabby construction techniques using crushed oyster shells mixed into concrete-like material.
