Jekyll Island, GA

Although we are primarily high-tailing it to Florida on this trip we did take a few days to visit Jekyll Island.

There wasn't much choice of campgrounds and it isnt the nicest but at least it is shady and near the beach. 

We hiked to this cool stretch of beach.

Also on the island is a big resort complex that is built around some old homes that were of an old club for rich families to come hunt and have a vacation.

We also visited the turtle center on the island. Turtles are studies and injured turtles are rehabilitated here before being returned to the wild.

In the center you can actually watch them do exams on the turtles it was pretty cool.
