St. Simons Land Trust
S
ome of the most beloved features
of Georgia’s Golden Isles are the
extensive bike paths, the canopy-
draped hiking trails, and the numerous
green spaces, parks, and preserves on St.
Simons Island. More than 1,000 acres
on the island have been protected by the
St. Simons Land Trust , an accredited
member of the national Land Trust
Alliance.
This includes Cannon’s Point Preserve,
with its 608 acres of undeveloped
wilderness, intact maritime forest, and
more than six miles of peninsula shoreline
on the north-end of the island. The 258-
acre Guale Preserve features Polly’s Trail
in the center of the property and Janet’s
Trail at the waterfront. And across the
island are protected areas that provide
intimate access to historic, cultural, and
environmental features and memorable
experiences for birders, hikers, bikers,
kayakers, photographers, and all nature
lovers.
As the Land Trust marks its 20th
anniversary this year, we celebrate
the residents, businesses, and visitors
who have helped to create a culture of
conservation on St. Simons. Be sure
to support 1% for St. Simons partners
who participate in our voluntary giving
opportunity that turns pennies into
protected acres.

activities that can be enjoyed on Land
Trust properties, please visit our website
