Beautiful and unique experience. Where else can you see crumbling ruins from the gilded age, the…read morebeach, and a herd of wild horses? There is something here for everyone and for people of all abilities. Most of the main part of the island is flat, including from the dock and up to the ruins (it's about 0.4 to half a mile from the dock to the ruins--and there are beach wheelchairs). There's also a main road that traverses the island from one end to the other for about 18 miles that can be traveled by bicycle. There's also an inn and multiple historical structures you can visit. You can also visit a beautiful, mostly empty beach! I got off at the first stop, which is the most challenging stop, meaning I had to climb over sand dunes to get to the beach. It was QUITE the workout and exhausting (I felt it for days after). Someone told me that the second ferry stop is a much easier, more direct path to the beach. This was a wonderful, serene location. I saw several groups of horses along my hike. The greenery is beautiful. I wouldn't mind coming back and setting up camp (permit required) so I can travel the whole island on bike and by foot. Spending more time on the tranquil beach. I wouldn't spend time at the end, as it's 900-1000 dollars or more per night with a two night minimum. If you're looking to visit the island during the day, the RiverView Hotel is RIGHT THERE, essentially directly across from the ferry, and costs about 200 a night for great vintage rooms with comfy beds. Please see my reviews of the ferry and Molly's tours to build a whole itinerary. You'll never see anything else like this, anywhere else in the world probably. It's a fairly cost effective trip, with the ferry costing just over 40 bucks round trip, the inn costing about 200 a night, and the island entry fee being just a few bucks.

Absolutely stunning beach and island! Such a special place. I will cherish this trip forever!…read more The wild horses, deer and turkey added so much to the beautiful landscape. Staying in the Stafford home was a special treat and something that I will never forget! Touring the homes on the island and learning about the history of Cumberland was magical!

3 Ladies - 1 - 88 1- 86 and 1- 71! OH MY GOD, The mode of transportation on the island is HORRIBLE…read morefor the Lands and Legacies Tour. What was wrong? The owners of the transport company over- stuffed the bus to full and maximum capacity with 12 paying customers. The seating in the rear of the bus is both claustrophobic, cramped, and those sitting in the middle of the last row of 4 really could not see much. (While maximizing profits for themselves...) The tour guide, Juane, was a 10! She had so much knowledge! The Van - ZERO! We came back hurting all over! For those being a bit older count on your hips, joints, neck muscles, hurting for several days... it's awful... and, the agony of being threw around, takes away most of the enjoyment of the tour. Which is a pity, as Cumberland Island is a most beautiful and interesting place. Hint: If you still decide to go on the tour, make sure you quickly select the 3 seats just behind the driver. These are fine. The next row is marginal, the rest, read above. us 3 Ladies were in the last row! Between the rough roads and the speed the driver was doing we couldnt hear a thing. When the tour was almost over she decided to turn on a portable bluetooth speaker that was attached to the seatbelt strap in the back. That lasted for about 5 minutes. I won't be recommending this tour to any of my friends. Maybe my enemies! Hint for the National Park Service: end the contract and get a bus company providing proper transportation! And regrade the roads! Maybe some item 4 or blacktop? The tour wasn't cheap so it should have been so much better!
