Crooked River State Park
Explore Georgia’s famed Intracoastal Waterway and a diverse maritime forest.
Crooked River State Park is a 500-acre preserve located just north of the Florida border on the Atlantic Coast. It’s an angler’s paradise—bring your boat to put in at the ramp or grab a rental onsite. A full-service bait shop makes it easy to pick up supplies, and a dockside cleaning station means you can cook what you catch. Aside from the water, Crooked River is known for its abundant wildlife, birding, and hiking trails through piney maritime forest. Learn all about the park’s diverse ecosystem at the nature center, and visit a nearby tabby mill for a taste of local history. The park is also just down the road from the ferry to popular Cumberland Island, making it a good stop on your way to exploring the Golden Isles.
