Nestled on the southwest side of Jekyll Island, next to the salt marsh on the pristine ’Tidelands’ Pond, is one of Jekyll’s hidden treasures, 4-H Tidelands Nature Center. Tidelands offers coastal ecology programs for the public & school groups, guided kayak tours, canoe rentals, and a live coastal species exhibit gallery. In keeping with Georgia 4-H Environmental Education program objectives, Tidelands strives to develop an awareness, knowledge, and appreciation for the environment, as we connect participants with Georgia’s coastal ecosystems. Come take a look at all we have to offer!
