Adventure Guide to the Georgia & Carolina Coasts

Adventure Guide discusses the relevant information, the history, hotels and restaurants, transportation and shopping options, but its heart belongs to the outdoors, the fishing, snorkeling, hiking, canoeing, photography, and bird-watching--the oft-neglected treasures of the U.S. South. Blair Howard provides details that are often omitted from other guides: visiting private Barrier islands, the best film to use, and successful seashell collecting tips. The city pleasures of Charleston and Savannah aren't ignored, but the guide's geared to exploring the wild dunes along with the historic districts, and the joys of the Okefenokee Swamp and The Outer Banks get top billing.
