Wolf Island National Wildlife Refuge, Coastal wildlife refuge in McIntosh County, United States.
Wolf Island National Wildlife Refuge encompasses 5,126 acres of saltwater marsh, barrier islands, and protected beaches along the Georgia coast.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service established this refuge on April 3, 1930, to create a protected habitat for native and migratory birds.
The refuge maintains wilderness status since 1975, reflecting federal commitment to protect natural environments without human development interference.
Access to Wolf Island requires personal boat transportation, and while surrounding waters permit fishing, all land areas remain closed for wildlife protection.
The refuge incorporates Wolf Island plus Egg and Little Egg Islands, forming a natural barrier system at the mouth of the Altamaha River.
