If passing through this area, you wouldn't want to miss visiting Cumberland Island National Park & Seashore. Plus, there is a really nice anchorage in Cumberland Sound to keep your boat while you tour around. Headed north, bear off the ICW into Cumberland Sound after Red buoy 32 and follow the deep water up to the second NPS dock at "Seacamp". This dock is the next dock after the one with the white building on shore. You can anchor off the dock or just beyond as the water shallows. Remember there is 10 feet of tide and a strong current runs through. Put the dinghy on the backside of the dock. The park office, maps, pay station ($10/person for 1 week) and all the lovely trails and ruin sites are right ashore from the anchorage. Look for deer, armadillos, wild horses, lots of birds, beautiful old trees and very few cars & people. This place is a real gem.
