Destination: Brunswick, Georgia


Located along Georgia’s stunning Southeastern coastline, Brunswick is a historic port city known for its scenic waterways, walkable and historic downtown area, and laid-back atmosphere. As the gateway to the Golden Isles, which includes St. Simons Island, Sea Island, Little St. Simons Island, and Jekyll Island, it’s the perfect place to experience authentic coastal Georgia. Visitors come for the history, stay for the views, and return for the small-town charm that feels refreshingly real.

“It’s a small town, but it’s full of heart. I learn something new every time I visit.”

 

Where is Brunswick?

Brunswick sits halfway between Savannah, Georgia, and Jacksonville, Florida, and is located just off I-95, making it an easy stop or a great starting point for exploring the Golden Isles. The Brunswick Golden Isles Airport (BQK) is just 20 minutes from downtown, with scenic views along the way. The Jacksonville International Airport (JAX) is about an hour south, while Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport (SAV) is a little over an hour north.

Nearby St. Simons Island is just a short drive away, with a wide variety of places to stay, plus beaches, shopping, and dining that perfectly complement a day spent exploring Brunswick.

“We always tell friends and visitors, visit Brunswick for the day, but stay on St. Simons for the full coastal experience.”

Seasonal Events in Brunswick

Springtime brings the Rhythm of the River concert series, filling the waterfront with live music and a variety of food trucks. In summer, we like to hit the Old-Fashioned Fourth of July Celebration, complete with fireworks over Mary Ross Waterfront Park. When fall rolls around, the Brunswick Harbor Market and the Jekyll & Hyde Con bring Brunswick to life. In winter, the Brunswick Rockin’ Stewbilee celebrates the city’s signature dish, Brunswick stew, with local teams cooking up their best versions. Plus, the Downtown Christmas Parade and twinkling lights make the historic streets shine, one of our favorite events.

“Brunswick knows how to celebrate—music, food, and a real sense of community with each changing season.”

Fun Water Adventures

Brunswick’s waterways are ideal for anyone who wants to explore the Georgia coast. We like to kayak through the Marshes of Glynn, paddleboard at Gould’s Inlet, and have booked charters and fished for redfish, flounder, and trout. The scenery is breathtaking, especially at sunset when the sky reflects off the water.

Any time spent on the water is peaceful, beautiful, and pure coastal Georgia.”

The Farmer’s Market is a great place to find fresh produce and hand-made goods, or walk beneath centuries-old oaks along a scenic trail, followed by a delightful meal at one of the area’s restaurants.
