Skidaway Island State Park is less than half an hour away from bustling Savannah, Georgia. This park offers a secluded escape into nature and plenty of other adventures.
The most popular way to explore this park is the easy Sandpiper Trail Loop, which you can do along with the Avian Loop to get a good look out at the water and the swaying reeds.
These sandy trails and little wooden bridges make for an easy stroll, and if you come early enough in the morning, you might just have the whole trail to yourself.
The most popular activities are probably camping in the forest, wandering around the park trails, and spotting exciting birds from woodpeckers to bald eagles.
The park also has great picnic spots where you can enjoy snacks from the local gift shop, and a geocache hidden in the park so the entire family can enjoy a GPS scavenger hunt.
