This is the season when life moves outdoors—and when it does, everything feels just a little more elevated, a little more effortless, and a lot more enjoyable.
April, in particular, offers some of the island’s finest moments. Before the summer crowds arrive and the heat settles in, locals have a window to enjoy St. Simons Island at its absolute best. While it’s unhurried, beautiful, and refreshingly relaxed. It’s the perfect month for locals to become tourists in their own town, so get out and enjoy the many outdoor activities the island has to offer.
A few simple pleasures to embrace:

• Bike the shaded paths from the Village to East Beach, pausing along the way for ocean views and coastal breezes.
• Pack a sunset picnic at Gould’s Inlet, where each evening brings a new masterpiece across the sky.
• Spend an afternoon dolphin watching or taking a laid-back eco-tour through the marshes and winding waterways.
• Stroll through the Village, exploring local shops, the pier, and live music drifting through the air.
• Enjoy a round of golf or a casual afternoon of pickleball with friends in the spring sunshine.
With so much to see, do, and savor, April delivers your invitation to step outside and soak it all in—so go ahead and spring into the season!
