Untamed island trek

Almost everything about Cumberland Island is wild. Georgia's largest barrier island is home to

9,800 acres of wilderness, including maritime forests, marshes and more. The Atlantic buffers Cumberland's eastern shores, and endangered loggerhead sea turtles make their nests here. Cumberland's feral horses are its most famous inhabitants, but the island is also a home to alligators. As the park website advises, "Don't trust that floating log!" Largely undeveloped, the island has fewer than 40 habitable residences, a historic inn and an African Baptist Church dating back to the late 19th century. The church gained national attention when the late John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette were married there in 1996. The average visit is more likely to include a ferry ride from nearby St. Maryscnn.com/interactive/2014/07/travel/50-states-natural-wonders/ and some good old-fashioned camping. More:
