Wilmington Island

Tucked along Georgia’s Atlantic coast, Wilmington Island is a place whose character is shaped by the tidal waters of the Wilmington River and the salt marshes around it. The island lies east of Savannah, on the road toward Tybee Island, with U.S. Route 80 providing its principal connection across the coastal lowlands. It is primarily a residential community, yet its setting belongs to the wider Georgia coast, where marsh channels, live oaks and maritime vegetation mark the transition between city and sea. Savannah’s National Historic Landmark District, known for its planned squares and 18th- and 19th-century architecture, is nearby.
