Georgia
Brunswick is the mainland gateway to the Golden Isles, and it is often skipped on the way to the beaches. This drive shows what you would miss: a waterfront where shrimp boats still dock, a stew pot at the center of a Georgia-versus-Virginia argument, the grid of squares laid out in 1771, a giant oak with a legend, and a World War II yard that built cargo ships by the dozen. It ends at a former rice plantation run today as a state historic site.
Brunswick: Squares, Shrimp Boats & Liberty Ships is a self-guided driving tour of Brunswick, built around its heritage side. It's one of 2 Georgia Roam tours in Brunswick — each a different route through the city, on your own schedule.
The walk covers 6 stops over about 14.4 miles and roughly 1 hour 41 min, entirely at your own pace. Each stop's story unlocks on your phone the moment you arrive — GPS-triggered, hands-free, no guide and no tour group to keep up with.
