15. Cumberland Island
Beautiful Cumberland Island is a barrier island just off the coast of the Georgia-Florida Border. The island is only accessible by a ferry that docks twice a day, at 9:00 a.m. and 11:45 a.m. For $45.00 each, you can take the educational Lands and Legacies tour and see the Dungeness Ruins, the First African Baptist Church, the Plum Orchard Mansion, and more.
You can rent bicycles at the visitor center and do your own thing too. Don’t forget to check out the beaches, and the island’s wild horses as well. Want to stay longer? Spend a few nights at the island’s sole hotel, the Greyfield Inn.
