Pin Point, unincorporated community in Chatham County, Georgia, United States of America
Pin Point is a small unincorporated community in Chatham County, Georgia. The settlement was historically centered around oyster fishing and contains scattered homes and structures across low-lying terrain marked by waterways and marshland.
Pin Point developed in the late 1800s as a fishing village where workers settled to harvest and process oysters. The community served for many decades as a working-class hub tied to the region's oyster industry.
The area sits at low elevation with uneven roads that can become difficult to navigate during wet weather. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes and plan ahead, as basic services and infrastructure are limited.
The name comes from oyster shells that accumulated in large quantities, creating visible points across the flat landscape. These shell mounds can still be spotted today and reveal the settlement's deep ties to seafood harvesting.
