Also Jekyll Island. Beach is only really beachy when tide is coming in and at high tide, but for nature there's not much that beats it. Kayaking in the salt marshes is super cool, hiking trails are great, you can take a day trip to Cumberland Island for even more wilderness. I'd say minimum 5 days to enjoy Jekyll.


These are both great suggestions- Beaufortis near Atlantic Beach too and a cute town to visit.

Don’t want to hijack this thread, but what about beaches up north such as in New Hampshire? Is it still pretty cool in June up there? Any recommendations for beaches/places to explore?

Hawaii if your budget is higher, Rehoboth if your budget is lower (my kids LOVED it as tweens).
