“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Jekyll Island, Georgia, for being home to two of the South's best beach bars as highlighted by ``Southern Living.'' These beloved spots showcase Georgia's coastal charm, creating unforgettable experiences. The Wharf is located on the historic Jekyll Pier with breathtaking marsh views. This institution offers a relaxed, open-air setting, welcoming everyone who enters. Known for serving fresh, Lowcountry seafood, classic burgers, and craft cocktails, this bar is a go-to for locals. Tortuga Jacks is also recognized for being the only oceanfront, Tiki- style restaurant on the Georgia coastline. It brings a true island feeling to Jekyll with a laid-back, pet-friendly atmosphere.

These establishments highlight the essence of Jekyll Island with great food, lively entertainment, and a true coastal experience. I encourage everyone to stop by and enjoy what Jekyll Island has to offer. Honoring the Legacy of Lydia Thompson”
