Rental was quick and easy, taking maybe two minutes. This shop is priced just a bit higher than the older bike rental (the one adjacent to mini-golf), but the Wheel Fun folks are nicer, quicker, and easier to deal with (the other shop has an old guy who will try to talk you OUT of renting a surrey!). By the way, the double-surrey is huge fun. It's not hard to pedal or drive at all. My family has done this two years in a row now. It's a great way to see the island.

Being in vacation on Jekyll Island we thought the bike fun had ended. But no, Ross put in a new tube in half an hour and his price was very, very reasonable. Thank you Ross, you saved a chunk of our vacation fun! Great job and your show/workshop is awesome. People don't be like us, don't buy cheap Chinese junk E-bikes. Ross is selling good quality bikes for good prices. Support these local guys, they are always there for you if you need service. I have learned my lesson! I would give Ross a few stars more if I could.

Great kayak tour with the folks at Ocean Motion. Our guide, Patrick, was phenomenal! He kept a…read morewatch on us the whole trip and made me feel totally at ease. He also kept us entertained the whole time! Also, Patrick was a wealth of knowledge. He shared a lot of the area's history as well as teaching us a about the local flora and fauna. Who knew there were marsh rabbits that actually swim? By the way, the picture is a Wood Stork. Unfortunately we did not get to see it carrying any babies. The rest of the folks at Ocean Motion were awesome. I waited until the last minute to book my kayak excursion. Not only did they get me a spot, they let me ride with Patrick to the put-in (my wife had taken our car). The store at Ocean Motion has a great selection of high quality clothing and other outdoor items. My wife picked up an awesome Patagonia shoulder bag. I got my new favorite shorts made be Howler Bros. I was not familiar with the brand but they are truly my new favorite shorts! I would highly recommend Ocean Motion for both shopping and kayak touring.

I've been here several times when visiting St. Simons to rent bikes and it's always a pleasant…read moreexperience. The rental prices are reasonable and I like that they offer helmets and baskets for no extra charge. There bike selection has changed a bit over the years and now all the bikes are the same color but they offer bikes with the add on for children to ride along the back. The store sells cute clothing as well and little things like sunscreen in case you're in need. The staff are always very helpful with recommending bike routes and things to do while on the island. If you're in need of a bike while on SSI, make your way down here!

There is a double wide sidewalk that goes a long way down the coast and it provides excellent views and places to hike or bike Plenty of hotel options to stay at. Many of them are dog friendly but be sure to check. During peak season it can get $$$ Driftwood beach and the pier are two of my favorite places on the island. The ruins are also a neat place to hike. I have posted separate reviews for all the places I've really enjoyed in the island. The food on the island is a mix of delicious and let downs. Be sure to check out some of the restaurants that are not right in the town village part. The locals tend to avoid them and after my last couple of visits I will too. There are a lot of repeating flavor profiles on the island of seafood obviously Overall this place is pretty amazing and worth checking out.

We were able to get up close and personal to the airport and see and hear the planes take off right over our heads-very cool! We did ask for a map twice after reading that there are twenty miles of bike paths and they explained that the "bike paths" are sidewalks throughout the island. While that may be the case, it would have been nice to have a paper guide or app to show us the different options. You could ride on the beach, in parks through neighborhoods, etc. but it would have been nice to have an idea of which way to go depending on what we wanted to see. Overall, I highly recommend biking as a beautiful way to see the island!

The main attraction here is to do the long hike to the ruins at the northernmost tip of the preserve. I was never given a clear answer about how many miles the hike is, I was just told it would probably take an hour each way to hike it, and they do not allow anyone access to attempt the hike past 1pm, to assure they've returned before close. You may bike it, something I wasn't told. That would've gone a lot faster and I'd have made it with my toddler! Next time. I did do a large portion of the trail, but I skipped the side trails in my attempt to reach the ruins. When I finally gave up, I did take a side path to a hammock of live oaks, and it was such a beautiful canopy! Like an arboreal cathedral! I posted a video of the birdsong here, OMG, it is crazy! Birds friggin' love this place! My dogs had fun exploring, but I don't think there was a lot of wildlife other than birds, because my dogs will usually get excited for anything and they didn't do that the whole walk. The bush here is so thick, I guess the fauna kept well hidden. This is a beautiful sanctuary, which is wonderful on the very built up island of SSI. Thank God for St Simons Trust!
