Sometimes there are places off the coast of a beautiful state that just aren’t accessible by foot. Those places tend to be most enjoyable, because it takes a little bit of legwork to get there. Luckily for us in Georgia, we have a one-of-a-kind ferry boat which takes us to the beautifully enchanting Cumberland Island.
One of the most naturally stunning places in the state of Georgia is only accessible by boat.
