McIntosh County, Georgia
McIntosh County is a coastal county that hugs Georgia’s Atlantic shore. This county is about water. Fishing is a big part of the culture, including shrimp boats along the waterways.
Sapelo Island, just offshore, is a world unto itself. They welcome visitors with open arms. The annual Blessing of the Fleet celebrates the county’s maritime heritage.
Darien, the county seat, oozes history from every weathered building. It’s been here since 1793. The Gullah Geechee culture thrives. Fort King George stands guard, a reminder of colonial days. Time seems to slow down in McIntosh County.
