ICW Bear River to Jekyll Island, GA
ICW Bear River to Jekyll Island, GA
The ICW follows the Bear River as it empties into St. Catherines Sound. This is the first in a series of sounds connected by rivers that you will pass through as you transit the Georgia portion of the ICW. Other sounds along this stretch include Sapelo Sound, Doboy Sound, Altamaha Sound, Buttermilk Sound, St. Simons Sound, Jekyll Sound and St. Andrews Sound. Some of these sounds are large and exposed enough to get rough, but they also provide a nice change of pace from the rivers and land cuts to the north.

Boating Destinations near the ICW Bear River to Jekyll Island, GA
Coastal Georgia’s waters are some of the most secluded and natural environments remaining along the U.S. eastern seaboard. Boaters and outdoor enthusiasts value the serenity and wide open low country for its wildlife, seafood and access to charming towns and cities perched along the numerous rivers, creeks and channels.
With a little over 100 miles of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway coursing along the state’s coast, you could spend a lifetime exploring its rich culture and history. Navigate off the beaten path of the AICW and you will find communities like Darien, which has just announced a new addition to the city’s riverfront.
