Hidden Gems

Can you keep a secret? Come and visit the Georgia that only the locals know about, and discover what our Hidden Gems can offer you and your family on your next Georgia getaway.

Discover Georgia's Altamaha River - the largest river system east of the Mississippi. You'll see why it's designated as one of the "Last Great Places" in the world. With many opportunities for kayaking, rafting and canoeing, and over 100 species of rare or endangered plants and animals, the Altamaha River  is the perfect place for adventure, relaxation and exploration.

Another outdoor adventure awaits you along the Georgia Coast. Just a short ferry ride from St. Marys, the spectacular world of Cumberland Island is waiting for you to discover. Witness the complex ecological system of the island's animal and plant communities and explore over 17 miles of its secluded, white sand beaches along this coastal Georgia gem.

The Georgia Mountains also provide the perfect backdrop for some exciting exploration. Cloudland Canyon and Tallulah Gorge are two of this region's hidden gems. Hike through the challenging terrain and be rewarded with the breathtaking vistas you'll find there.

On your next vacation, take the road less traveled, and discover the hidden gems that make Georgia such a unique vacation destination.
