  6. Thank you so much for the kind words, I sincerely appreciate it! Driftwood Beach is truly an otherworldly place and most definitely worth a visit if you’re ever traveling through the Southeast USA!

  7. Your article and Driftwood Beach are beautiful! Thank you. Were there ever any buildings on the beach? There appear to be remnants of “tabby” walls and some sort of pipes in the sand. Thanks.

    1. Thank you so much for your kind comment and for your great question! Which sent me down a major Google rabbit hole. 😆 While I know there were never any buildings on the beach, I wasn’t sure about the pipes and what look to be leftover metal tracks. The best answer I’ve been able to find is that they are from a hydraulic structure that’s used to prevent longshore drift. However, the next time I’m on Jekyll I’m going to swing by the visitors center to see if someone there has an official answer, so stay tuned! 😃

      As for the remnants of tabby, tabby was often made by the water which could explain its presence. But I’ll for sure ask about that as well! If I can get an official response from someone on Jekyll I will for sure be updating my article with this information!

    1. You are going to fall in love with Driftwood Beach! And your doggies will enjoy exploring all of its nooks and crannies too! 😁

  8. This article is EXCELLENT….telling me (in detail) about one of the most amazing places on earth! I can see from reading this article why Driftwood Beach is recognized as one of the top 25 beaches in the world! Although I live in Georgia, I have learned so much new information about Driftwood Beach from reading this informative and intriguing post. Thank You, PARCHED, for giving me so much information. I must visit there and see it for myself!

    1. I can’t thank you enough for your incredibly complimentary words! It makes me so happy that you enjoyed reading this article and that as a native Georgian, you still learned new things about the wonder that is Driftwood Beach. I hope you do get to see it for yourself one day – it’s truly worth the journey to see! Thank you for reading along and for your support, I’m so appreciative.

    1. Thank you so much for your kind comment, UB! I truly appreciate it and am deeply grateful for your support. 💖 Driftwood Beach is so unique and special, I can’t wait to take you for a drive over to Jekyll Island to see it when you come visit!

    1. You are too kind, thank you! Driftwood Beach will blow your mind. 🤯 It’s so otherworldly and unique, and is truly a photographer’s paradise!

  9. I was born in Brunswick but live in Mississippi. I miss all of the photos. It takes me back! I can almost remember the smells. Thank you so much for your site what a blessing!

    1. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your lovely words, thank you! The Golden Isles is such a special part of Georgia – what a wonderful place to call “home.” My grandfather lived on St. Simons, so although not my home, I grew up coming to visit him. I love that you mention the smells because Brunswick and St. Simons have very distinct smells that take me right back to my childhood, so I really know what you mean! Thank you again for your kind words, I’m so happy you found your way to my website!

  10. Sincerely, Georgia has the nicest beaches I’ve ever seen. They really are very beautiful! I enjoy this place’s tranquil, wonderful vibe.

    1. I couldn’t agree with you more! The beaches in Georgia are so unique and have their own special charm. So glad you enjoy Driftwood’s tranquil vibe as much as I do!

  11. You did a beautiful job on all the pics. It’s been our favorite place to go for over 30 years. It still takes my breath away and always will. Thank you for sharing pieces of my heart. 💖

    1. Thank you so much for this lovely comment, I sincerely appreciate it! I can certainly understand why Driftwood Beach has been a favorite place of yours for 30 years – it is truly unique, otherworldly, and so very special! I’m planning to go back soon in hopes of doing a more thorough photo essay of this amazing beach (although, as you know, no pictures can fully do justice to its beauty!). Thank you again for your kind words, it’s so nice to connect with you. 💛
