Historic Brunswick A port city blending trea- sured history and opportunities S erving as the mainland to Georgia’s Golden Isles, Brunswick is perched harbor-side near the Atlantic with the intracoastal waterway separating it from the nearby islands. Christened one of the five ports of entry for the original colonies by George Washington, the city is home to one of the largest ports on the east coast. Brunswick features architecture that is proudly Victorian, with street names reflecting its colonial origins. Historic Downtown Brunswick is home to many festivals, events, a thriving farmers market, and the storied Historic Ritz Theatre. Additionally, the city is home to one of the largest historic districts in Georgia, a four-year college, a world-class healthcare facility and downtown’s distillery, varied dining options, and a brewery. discoverbrunswick.com 912.265.4032 99 95 Little St. Simons Island 17 St. Simons Island Sea Island 303 Brunswick 10 Jekyll Island 520 17 At l
