Whether you quest is to find vacation home real estate, planned communities, or just real estate property for sale, you won’t find a better location than St. Simons Island, Georgia. As part of the Golden Isles, St. Simons is one of the four barrier islands offering real estate home sites of breathtaking beauty built in an area rich in history. Here you can find a variety of both new and mature residential properties and real estate developments to suite your needs.

Inspired by the magnificent beauty, mild weather, and sun drenched beaches, gold seeking Spanish explorers 400 years ago gave the area of St. Simons Island the name of the Golden Isles. It is no different today. When you live here you’ll discover lovely sand dunes and huge expanses of marshland, punctuated by small island hammocks teeming with all sorts of fish, birds and animals. Then you’ll know why colonial soldiers from both Spain and England fought over this area hundreds of years ago.

Although any real estate property you purchase here will be set in a sea of tranquility and quiet, there is plenty to do for those with active lifestyles. For instance, climb aboard a working shrimp boat where you can eat what you catch, take a dolphin watch, a kayak or canoe trip, deep sea fishing tour, or even try the games aboard a 600 passenger casino ship.

If that’s not enough there are 198 golf holes in the area to test your skill. Explore local historical sites such as the St. Simons Lighthouse which is the oldest brick structure in the area. Be amazed at the Tree Spirits carved from living oaks immortalizing sailors lost at sea. Or, test your bravery with a walk on the beaches and in the forests at night in search of Mary the Wanderer, one the Ghosts of the Golden Isles. Then finish your day at one of the many restaurants to be found to suit every taste and appetite from casual to the elegant.

St Simons Island is an area committed to preserving its rich heritage, but focused with and eye toward the future.
