If you’re looking for a truly unique beach that is consistently ranked one of the prettiest and most picturesque in the US, Driftwood Beach on Jekyll Island is definitely worth a visit. Created by erosion over the years, the phenomenon of this beach was created by constant changes that effect the northern part of Jekyll Island, where the beach is located. The landscape was shaped by facing the daily rise and fall of the tide, intense storms, and the occasional hurricane.

The history, the challenges, the serenity and the courses – these are the things that go into making golf “the greatest game there is.” Jekyll Island has a tradition of inspiring some of golf’s greatest stories and living up to expectations. In 1898, members of the Jekyll Island Club created the island’s first golf course. Our island has been a heralded golf destination ever since, attracting such acclaimed designers as Donald Ross, Walter Travis and Joe Lee – as well as players from around the world. Each course is a masterpiece. Imagine playing through some of Jekyll Island’s most pristine lakes, marshes and forests. There are very few man-made obstructions here.
