Some of your favorite things to do will soon be to sit on the large porch with plenty of comfortable seating, that faces SE, being mesmerized as the tides come in & out throughout the day varying sometimes up to 10 feet, watching & listening to the salt water birds, enjoying the breeze from the not so distant ocean & the massive expansion of sky covered in thousands of stars at night, then taking a stroll down the dock to hopefully spot dolphins & stingrays. Bicycling on the small island and kayaking, are always a special treat as well.
Darien is known for being one of the best fisheries on the coast of Georgia. In fact, the area’s largest shrimp boat fleet calls Darien home. Located near the mouth of the Altamaha river, the local waters are well nourished, attracting an abundance of baitfish… And where there is baitfish there will be game fish! You can expect to find an array of species such as redfish, speckled trout, flounder, tripletail, and even tarpon.
Take a short 10 minute drive to the delightful little downtown Darien, with it’s local shops & delicious restaurants on the water. Skippers and the wine bar are 2 of our favorites! And for those that love to cook, the local grocery store, The Coastal Market and McKenzies Market are wonderful choices to bring back something delicious to cook!
The ISLAND RUM-AWAY makes it easy to unplug and feed your mind & soul. Enjoy!
