Awesome history and the wild horses were great.

Excellent information about Cumberland Island and also the last battles of 1812. Highly recommend visiting here before exploring the island.

Very informative!

If you haven't been to this National Park, you should give it a try! You can only get there by boat with a round trip cost of ~ $35 pp. That doesn't include your standard NP entry fee (which I did not see anyone checking for at either end of the trip) of $10 pp. Other than a couple of restrooms and water bottle filling points, there are no amenities on the island. There are no trash cans... so you pack it in, you pack it out. To get the most out of this location you should have a reasonable fitness level. The route around the southern half of the island with some exploring will take about 4 hours to hike. It isn't likely you would be able to see the whole island in a single day trip. Bicycle rentals were not available when we were there, but for an additional $10 you can bring your own bike on the ferry. The terrain is mostly easy, but there is some sand to traverse which could be challenging. You will be delighted to see feral horses roaming about, along with the usual array of wildlife, like deer, turkey, wading birds, armadillos, and at the waterfront manatees and dolphins. Check out the website to find out more features of the island... there are too many to list in a review!
