- 363Dan-DundonJacksonville, FL123 contributionsA beautiful setting with well done educational displays that clearly explain the history of the area and its people. Go when the temperature is moderate to get full enjoyment of the outside features.Written 5 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- momE1Front Royal, VA357 contributionsHaving read Eugenia Price's "Lighthouse Trilogy" (a well-researched historical fiction series portraying real people who lived on St. Simons Island), I wanted to see Christ Church and the adjoining cemetery first-hand. The docent at the church was very informative, and the church itself is beautiful, inside and out. The grounds and the cemetery are full of history, and would highly recommend you read the books before visiting the church to maximize the experience.Written 2 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- momE1Front Royal, VA357 contributionsThis is a really well done exhibit in the lighthouse keeper's home, and then you can also climb the stairs to the walkway at the top of the lighthouse. It's still an active lighthouse and the light can be seen 23 miles out. Cargo carriers coming into the Port of Brunswick give a horn salute every time they pass the lighthouse. And a LOVELY gift shop too. Well worth the visit. Veterans/active duty military get a discount.Written 2 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Angel M10 contributionsThis was our first visit to St Simon's Island and found it exactly what we were looking for: warm, sunny, restaurants within walking distance and beaches to stroll upon. Don't miss the honey store in downtown SSI ~ you can do both honey tastings and honey wine tastings ~ and it's a fun experience. The area could use more pickle ball courts. It's so busy, we never got a chance to play there. It's close enough to also enjoy day trips to Jekyll Island and Brunswick, both worth visiting.Written 16 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- 363Dan-DundonJacksonville, FL123 contributionsWe visited this museum years ago but were pleasantly surprised at the new audio visual exhibits.

- lindsaystongelmhcAltamonte Springs, FL394 contributionsA nice pier to see the view of the water. Lots of birds, ships to see and watch people fish. Part of the pier is covered to protect from the rain.Written 25 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Connie BCharleston, SC21 contributionsVery pretty building and grounds. Short distance to lighthouse. Welcoming and helpful staff. Be sure to check out the Golden Isles Tree Spirit on the grounds.Written 10 December 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- John GAsheville, NC460 contributionsThis is similar to Geocaching without a GPS. Just pick up a map from the visitors center. The closest one is right outside.Written 4 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- John GAsheville, NC460 contributionsIf you want to hike or bike while seeing interesting local topography, this is a good place. Very clean rest rooms and someone to answer questions and point you in the correct direction. Perfect weather the beginning of November.Written 4 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Amy SOhio22 contributionsEast Beach is a wide, beautiful, clean, and well maintained beach! It's so big that there is plenty of room to spread out and enjoy your day. We checked out three Saint Simons beachs and this was the best by far!Written 15 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Roy CWhispering Pines, NC997 contributionsThere are a number of things to do on St. Simons Island that cost absolutely nothing. The Wesley Memorial & Gardens is one of them. We were there in early March and the Azalea shrubs blooming were outstanding. The gardens are directly across the road from the Episcopalian Christ Church and within walking distance to Fort Frederica.Written 19 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ReneeAtlanta, GA411 contributionsThe Celtic cross monument to the Wesley brothers is a beautiful tribute to such brave men. Very tasteful.
