St Simons GA

St Simons – one of the Golden Isles

Connected to mainland Georgia by a couple of bridges accessed from Brunswick, St Simons lies across the St Simons sound from the northern tip of Jekyll Island. It is indeed a special place.

 Although the beach was beautiful, the lighthouse spectacular, the shopping plentiful and classy, the bike paths shaded and immaculate, the homes gracious, and the golf courses numerous,  the highlight of our stop on St Simons Island was a visit to Crabdaddy’s – where we enjoyed one of the best meals since we started this floating life. If we hadn’t crossed paths or wakes with Charlie and EJ who founded this establishment back in 1988, we might not have known to partake. Sadly they were back on their boat – which only a few days before our visit they picked up from the Panama City Marina, nevertheless we enjoyed the hospitality of their son, Josh, our bartender, Amy and ace man of all jobs, Scott. The conversation and service were cordial and warm but the specials of the day were the scrumptious stars - just one of many reasons to stop in St Simons on our next trip through this area.
