Sea Island

Best Weekend Getaways from Atlanta

"Among Georgia’s Golden Isles, Sea Island has shone the brightest since 1926. The Forbes Five-Star resort and its Addison Mizner–inspired inn, the Cloister, are home to five miles of private beach, a hunting preserve, and a sprawling Beach Club and pool complex. Golf is a big deal here: Sea Island residents Davis and Mark Love recently redesigned the classic Plantation Course. During your trip, take part in decades-old resort traditions like family bingo and seafood suppers on nearby Rainbow Island. On neighboring St. Simons Island, tour the St. Simons Lighthouse Museum and visit Revolutionary War sites, including Fort Frederica National Monument."
