On the way to Florida I decided to visit Jekyll Island in GA and roam the dead trees on drift wood beach. Located on the north end of Jekyll Island, Driftwood beach will amaze you with the beautiful driftwood and trees that resemble a tree graveyard. This is due to the north end of the island slowly eroding away and being deposited on the south end of the island.
Jekyll Island is located off the coast of Georgia, in Glynn County. It is one of the Sea Islands and one of the Golden Isles of Georgia barrier islands. Wikipedia
This is Driftwood Beach on the coast of south Georgia.
One of the most interesting beaches on Jekyll Island,
these once-grand oak trees have been captured by the surf and have tumbled into the sea.
Some of the trees on this beach are still standing
but have died with the pounding waves
that engulf their roots as the tides come in and out every day.
