Just below, as in south of, the famous Carolina Lowcountry lies a lesser known region, Coastal Georgia.
Geographically, culturally, and historically this area is virtually indistinguishable from its northern neighbor, it’s simply the Savannah River that separates them.
Join us as we survey the swamps, seafood, and even a sea serpent along the Atlantic shoreline….CONTINUE READING >>
