The St. Marys River defines the setting of Saint Marys — its lower reaches place the waterfront beside Cumberland Sound and the tidal coast of southeast Georgia. The city’s historic district combines a compact downtown with streets leading to the riverfront, where ferries leave for Cumberland Island National Seashore. Across the sound, the protected island is known for long beaches, maritime forest and the Dungeness ruins, associated with the Carnegie family estate. Saint Marys also has the St. Marys Submarine Museum, reflecting the area’s long ties to U.S. submarine service.
