Glory Beach, Jekyll Island

Another Jekyll Island star, Glory Beach is also fantastic. To reach the beach, you must cross a long wooden boardwalk that juts out over towering dunes, lush flocks of sea nests, and freshwater puddles. This structure was built in 1989 by the producers of the Civil War movie Glory, which was filmed here.

Miles of hard sand make it easy to walk or cycle along a wide stretch of land without sinking too deeply. The sea breeze makes kite flying easy. Turn your gaze towards the horizon for a lovely, unobstructed view of Cumberland Island.

Located on the south side of Jekyll Island, this beautiful beach sits next to the island's Football Complex, which serves as the beach's parking and entrance area. It's usually pretty empty, which adds to its quiet charm.
