Answer:
Georgia’s coast is among the most popular tourist attractions in the South, and also one of the most historic places in Georgia - it was along the coast where Georgia’s earliest settlements were established. The geography of the Georgia coast has played an important role in the development Georgia as a colony and state, and continues to play a vital role today in modern Georgia. Georgia does not have a long coastline; it extends roughly one-hundred miles from Tybee Island in the north to Cumberland Island in the south. Georgia’s coast is not a continuous beach where sea suddenly meets dry land, but an irregular, beautiful mixture of rivers, streams, swamps, estuaries, and islands.
